| Notes | In my recent pieces, I have become very interested in finding new environments for the classic American 12-bar blues form. In Taut, the blues form serves as a framework in which intersections between the classically bowed violin and classically plucked Japanese koto can emerge. The piece is dedicated to the wonderful players of Duo Vio-LINK-oto. [Elizabeth Kelly] |
