Written for piano trio, which is an ensemble of violin, cello, and piano, "Pas de deux" is an exploration of the nature of the traditional pas de deux in classical ballet. Typically somewhere in the latter half of the ballet, the female and male principal dancers, or lead, take a break from narration and perform a collection of four dances of virtuosic skill and adagio beauty. These dances include: 

I. Pas de deux (in which the two dance together
II. Variation de l'homme (the male solo)
III. Variation de la femme (the female solo)
IV. Coda (a rousing finish of exuberant splendor)

This four movement piece was meant to be an exploration of the nature of each of these dances, while also being an attempt to explore new harmonic and musical languages to me. I am quite pleased with the final product, and hope you enjoy!

Premiered by Kroma Trio at the Juilliard School on March 19, 2015. Thanks to Philip Sheegog for the recording.
