Between Shadows and Light Set Type:Digital Score

Between Shadows and Light Set Type:Digital ScoreBetween Shadows and Light is a reflective and evocative piece built around the dialogue between two contrasting sound worlds: one darker, with an ancient and suspended quality; the other brighter and more lyrical, constantly reaching toward openness. The initial theme, modal and contemplative in character, returns in varied forms and eventually intertwines with the more melodic material in a final, full hearted conclusion.
