About the Piece
Silent Streets captures a surreal moment in time when urban landscapes fell unnervingly quiet. It is ideal for professional pianists and advanced students exploring atmospheric writing, color, and expressive restraint. The work is well-suited for solo piano recitals, themed programs about solitude, or competitions that value tone control, pacing, and the ability to sustain tension within quiet writing.
 
Program Notes
Silent Streets was composed during one of the lockdowns that confined millions of people to their homes due to the COVID‑19 pandemic. The music captures the eerie sensation of empty streets viewed from windows, the distant hum of sparse emergency traffic, and the somber news emanating from hospitals.
