@p-313: Thanks so much! Thanks for listening.

very evocative piece, you drag the listener in from the very beginning and  pull them along a harrowing and beautiful tale

Very nice haunting melody.  I like the sway of the strings underneath, and the occasional dissonance.  Excellent work, and well played by the quartet!  :-))

Inspired by both the music and poetry of his stunning 2021 album Liminal, this collection of music features seven reimagined tracks, written in collaboration with from artists across three continents.

Darkly cinematic and warmly meditative in equal measure, this lead single (All Disappearing) is inspired by a poem by Sarah Usinger:

A seed sown in darkness 
a chrysalis in the shadows 
All disappearing then taking shape

Performed by the Temple University Wind Symphony
Emily Threinen, conducting

Anticipation is a powerful thing. In the form of anxiety it can keep us awake at night, writhing in terror and despair; as excitement it can act as a fuel for our most profound achievements. Nightfall Hysteria focuses largely on the former: the self-inflicted wounds we suffer when contemplating some dreaded fate in the dark of night. It is often those events that we are powerless to change that cause us the most aggravation. This work explores these complex emotions in seven parts, correlating to the form of a classical  rondo.
