Dhammapada Verses for Soprano, Flute, Piano, and Percussion (1990/Revised 2001) Duration: 14'
Setting of 6 Buddhist aphorisms in a continuous song cycle. Lyrical, kind to the voice. Colorfully interwoven textures, rhapsodic, beautiful. Some virtuosity required in all parts, esp. control of delicate timbral shadings, e.g., soprano vocalise with modulating vowels, piano harmonics. Commissioned and premiered by the contemporary ensemble Thamyris.
