Program notes:
While composing the Ten Bagatelles for solo piano, and even more while practicing the completed work for performance, I realized its orchestral potential: the piece was asking to speak through a larger medium with more dramatic power, greater contrast of dynamics, a richer palette of colors, and simultaneous registers. These ten character pieces are around 2-3 minutes each, which together create a united symphonic form.
