About the Work
About the Edition
The five movements of this Trio are terse, interior, and enigmatic. They contain the seeds of things that have occupied me over the years since: a preference for tonality and singing melodies, and a way of collecting short movements to tell a larger story. I think my historical reference is to the string quartet pieces by Schoenberg and Webern, which in turn have their roots in nineteenth-century song cycles.
