Program Notes:
Somewhere in the middle of an imaginary ocean, a friendly submarine extends its periscope to the surface on a mission of discovery. What awaits above the water? What will be seen? In Periscopes, I have depicted twelve distinct miniatures, each transporting the listener into a unique sonic world.
Movements:
1. Voyage
2. Howdy!
3. The Maiden and her Soldier…
4. Suspicious Fluids
5. A Dusky Fall
6. The Wondrous Park Carousel
7. Towards the Unknown
8. Awakening
9. The Garden behind the Gate
10. Cotton Candy Man
11. Before Farewell
12. Night Ride
Periscopes was generously commissioned in memory of Adele and John Gray.
