| Program Notes | The work is in three movements, each inspired by a different Biblical quotation relating to "brightness." The passages are quoted as epigraphs before the score of each movement. The first movement, "Brightness of the Firmament," is a rondo with a ritornello in dotted rhythms that continues to return throughout the movement. Often the flute soars like "stars in the sky" over thick chords in the organ. The second movement "Walking in Brightness," is a chaconne. The flute develops an everwinding melody of increasing complexity over a static accompaniment in the organ. The third movement, "Go Forth as Brightness," is energetic yet lyrical, pushing forward to an exciting conclusion. --Carson Cooman |
