Factory

for Pierrot ensemble plus percussion

Program Note:
Factory (2017) aims to depict a bird’s-eye view of a factory, with its workers attending to the various tasks at hand. To me, the persistent pulse and interlocking rhythms remind me of gears turning reliably and steadily, while the various melodic materials make me think of the little factory workers frantically running around in a caricature of modern factory conditions. Furthermore, the image of a “Days Since Last Accident: 280” sign comes to mind as the workers diligently complete their various duties in a tidy manner. 
​Contact me for scores and parts.
