Add to cartWork Overview
Tempus Fugit translates to "Time Flies," written for ANAM graduate Madeleine Aarons. When I first heard Maddy play, I was amazed at her strength, technical excellence, and musicality, and I wanted this piece to demonstrate those qualities in her playing. The commission for this piece came during a year of extreme busyness alternating with calm, and the phrase "time flies" relates to that feeling of moving forward in time. Musically, the piece includes a short fugal section, as a nod to a previous composition of mine for horn and piano, and a chance to demonstrate both players' virtuosity.
