Digressions could be heard as if it were being played out on a field of two contending armies, one, represented by the flowing theme presented in the opening measures to which is soon added a strident and persistent repeated-note motive, and the other, represented by a song-like theme of great intimacy. While these two forces vie for supremacy, each holds the field alone for varying periods of time.
A successful performance of Digressions is one that will take advantage of the wide range of articulation and dynamics that the score calls for. Because of the highly contrapuntal nature of its textures, textures in which each participant is given ample opportunity to "shine," it also challenges the players to measure up to the highest standards of string quartet performance.
Digressions was composed for the Guitar Ensemble at Queens College and first performed by it on May 12, 1995.
