Name: String Quartet #2, 1st movement by Dell Wade
Duration: 4 min
Description: This is the recording of first movement of my 2nd string quartet, recorded by the EPIC Quartet

This is the sound file of my 14th symphony. It is subtitled "Symphony of Solace". This is what little I can do to deal with the stresses everywhere. It is for double string orchestra.

Symphony #14

Selections from "The Unquiet Country" — poems by Patrick Milian with music commissioned by Emerson Eads. The full audio is available at Entre Ríos Books. 

"The Unquiet Country" is a book of kinship— the legacies we inherit, the self we create and reflect, and ultimately queer love and respect.

In this hybrid debut, Patrick Milian explores the lives of Nadia Boulanger (1887-1979), arguably the most important composition pedagogue of the twentieth century, and her sister Lili Boulanger (1893-1918), a brilliant composer who died young. Using his own status as HIV+, he eruditely considers camp, the femme fragile, and the transformative nature of illness, as these women reimagined intertwine with his own history and voice.
