Program Notes

Three Pieces for the Anatolian Trio was written for three Hartt School students/alums in 2010. Each piece is short, with a distinct identity: a fugue whose subject is an almost-twelve-tone row, an elegy (based on a miniature composed almost two years prior to the other movements), and a perpetual motion finale using the chromatic row hinted at in the fugue. Though intended as a set, the movements can be performed individually.
