about

three short works for large ensemble, 2020-2021.

this series consists of source material from an old hymn book found in the attic of my great grandmother’s farmhouse in Guymon, Oklahoma. I have taken small melodic fragments from the hymns bookmarked by previous users of the book and morphed, divided, and stretched out these elements to create an abstraction of this music which was once so profound for my grandmother and her community, and which has since been to some extent forgotten and abandoned. in doing so, I hope to embody the state of my own connection to my great grandmother, to worship music, and to the christian god, which was once strong and alive and is now similarly gone, past, and forgotten, in many ways existing only in small artifacts and memories.
