“Man on Stilts” is an ode to the wobbly rhythmic grooves that I associate with the music of D’Angelo. It was written for, premiered, and recorded by Michael James Smith. The piece is part of the Calder Project, an ever-expanding collection of piano works responding to Alexander Calder's sculptures and Sara Ahmed's concept of citation chains.
