Houtaf Khoury (b. 1967): Rhapsody for flute and piano (1997)

Commissioned by The Texas Flute Society for the 2018 Myrna Brown competition, "Homeland" is a work for solo flute that questions the meaning of home when it is in political turmoil, devastated by a natural disaster or a human disaster.

Homeland

02/12/20 - New York, NY - Somethings spoken a handful of times (string trio)
PREMIERE - Future Space - Chartreuse Trio

PROGRAM NOTE
Some things spoken a handful of times was written during the Winter of 2019 for my friends of the Chartreuse Trio.

Movements:
1.	prayer — augmentation
2.	variation I
3.	“to Daniel” — …wie ein hauch… — “Gloria tibi trinitas”
4.	glacially “glosa” — variation II — 3 fragments

. . . . I waited unseen and always,
And slept while God carried me through the lethargic mist, 
And took my time . . . . 

Not all birds that sing
Give help to heaven. But where
Song fails there blindness comes
To the poor prisoner.
Yet the last of all is life.

. . . . the closest
Simplest things—this moment with you,

Fragments from: Song of Myself and A Song for Occupations, Walt Whitman; Hölderlin to Sinclair, Erich Fried

Somethings spoken a handful of times (string trio)

Miradas (2020), the Mexican composer Cynthia Martínez writes about her work: “Learning leads us through different paths: errors, mistakes will occur throughout the journey. Moments of despair and guilt feed the tiredness and anger that grow increasingly in an environment of fatigue. Humiliation kills and destroys... On the other hand, courage is the trigger to "look" at ourselves. Here the errors occur, the despair arrives, but the healing process dampens, wraps, making every moment calm, until completely cured. Forgive us."
