Scenes From Dreams, 2015 (Grade 6, 14:00)

Scenes From Dreams was originally composed in 2014-2015 for my masters thesis. The piece is based around a set of dreams that I experienced in 2009-2010 as an undergrad at SIUE. I held off on making sense of the dreams until I felt mature enough to do so. In unlocking my dreams and expressing my experiences through music, I became more aware of myself and my life. While not officially titled, SFD is my Symphony No. 2 for wind ensemble. This piece has not yet been fully premiered.

I. Ascend to Hell

II. …my mother has been dead for 16 years…

III. I am exhausted.
