Sight Action Sound [CF:410-41219]

Subtitled "Reflections of a Dark Light," this 35-minute work was commissioned by Lambert Orkis. Without relying on the literal "sonata form," the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer has constructed a first movement based on developed and juxtaposed themes, and then a consecutive second and third movement consisting of a fragmentary impression followed by a theme with variations. For college, conservatory, professional. Difficult.
