Just finished my latest string quartet – Begin, again – which was commissioned by the Polish Festival of Portland in celebration of the 100th year of Poland’s independence.
The piece was hard to start, I should confess. I wasn’t expecting this to be so much work since I tend to love writing for string quartet. BUT! In the end it turned out to be (what I feel) is some of my best recent work. So, you never can tell I guess.
The premiere is scheduled for later this fall and I will be sharing more info on my social media outlets as the time gets nearer.
