Another word from “The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows” that’s hitting hard for me right now:

Dès Vu - The awareness that this moment will become a memory.

Man…I want to do this forever. ❤️

And forever grateful to Lesley Swanson, Jonathan Hannau, and the stellar ensemble that is the Chicago Composers Orchestra for entrusting me to write my first true, orchestral and large-scale work.

Hopefully many more to come 🙌🏾

This has been my favorite and most emotional work to date. It demanded a lot from me to get to the heart of these words, and I desperately couldn’t wait to share it with you all. It’s why I “marketed” this premiere so heavily, and I’m grateful for such a good turnout.

All I ever hope to do is share my music with as many people as possible and create an experience for the listener. To create for me in hopes it’s not just for me. To communicate in the only way music can.

This has been a labor of love and I absolutely CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL. It's perhaps my most emotional work as well, and the piece takes you on quite a sonic adventure about the human experience. I'll talk more in coming posts about what the two words in the title mean, so stay tuned!

Heath said you come mark your calendars and get your ticket and hear some new music baby 🔥
