CryptOlogiE (2014)
for Flute, Clarinet, Violin & Piano
Duration: 8.5 minutes
This vibrant quintet is a deeply personal work, inspired by the composer’s wife and two daughters. Built from serial pitch sets based on their birthdays, Morse code rhythms that spell names, and recurring pitches tied to their initials, the piece is a playful and affectionate puzzle—full of color, structure, and heart. Reflecting the personalities of its muses, it’s energetic, sweet, and meticulously crafted.
