We Were Tired of Living in a House (2021)
The title comes from a wonderful children's book of the same name by Liesel Moak
Skorpen which my mother used to read to me. Being stuck indoors for the past year
with my family, we took great refuge in our many dance parties (we even got a mini
disco ball). We listened to a lot of Daft Punk, Imogen Heap, Lymbyc Systym, and
Sophie, which had a profound impact on our overall mood and outlook. I did my best
to create a work which embodied many of my favorite elements of their music as well
as making a few musical nods to the oboe quartets of Britten, Bresnick, and Dagmar.
Galveston '89 (2019)
Before my father and my mother's father died, my family used to take trips to
Galveston, TX in the summers of the late '80s. I recently came across some old home
videos from those trips and was inspired to create a distilled moment in time for my
mother, where we were all alive and happy.
