​

​PROGRAM NOTE​

Recently it occurred to me (or rather, I openly admitted to myself) that I can sometimes be an antsy, anxious person. Composing for Boyce Jeffries and Nick Micheels of the Noice Duo, I wanted to experiment in Brief Meditation with the concept musically evoking the meditative state, or being simply in the moment.  (RS)​
