Program Notes

Signals for four percussionists and piano/celeste was written during a one-week stay in Berlin. From my window on the 10th floor, I could see, through a mild fog, the red light of a distant antenna. The imagined communication between me and the signals of this antenna is the inspiration for this work.

 

Signals is dedicated to Frank Epstein and the NEC Percussion Ensemble.
