Programme Notes / Performance Details : “Floes” was inspired by images of ice, yet the music itself is not static. The suspended harmonies and free flowing meter seem to depict water in a state of transition; freezing, melting, and “floeing.” Listening to the piece may evoke the image of a sheet of ice breaking loose from a glacier and slowly sliding into the freezing water of the Arctic Ocean. At another moment, one might think of droplets of water melting from a chain of icicles, forming a series of perfect rings in the water below, or a solitary block of ice dislodged from the gutter on the fringe of building, dropping silently through the air only to shatter into a thousand pieces on the sidewalk. This piece was awarded second place in Percussive Arts Society competition in 2004. ~ Matthew Thomas |
