D.E.M.I. (2018)
demi-clarinet ensemble
Andrew Seigel, Elizabeth (Widzinski) Hanlon, and Andrew Martin Smith performing on lower demi-clarinets.
Recorded live. March 28, 2018 | Rosch Recital Hall School of Music | State University of New York at Fredonia Fredonia, New York |
Program Note
The result of a collaborative exploration—between Fredonia clarinetists Andrew Seigel, Elizabeth (Widzinski) Hanlon, and Andrew Martin Smith—of the sonic possibilities inherent within a demi-clarinet ensemble, D.E.M.I. was completed and premiered during the spring semester of 2018. Using Morse code as a slightly humorous, fundamental, and grammatical generator of musical structure, the composer fashions a strange soundscape that is paradoxically novel and familiar, full of expressive lyricism, intertwining melodies, and rhythmic vitality.
