Product Description

In 2008, the A.N. Pearl G. Barnett Family Foundation commissioned me to write a piece for their cello competition. It had to be "approximately 5 minutes in duration, arranged for cello and set to piano accompaniment, and it was to include "typical elements of the cello; that is, a lyrical expressive mood, melodic content, virtuoso finger work, and articulation." The result of this commission was From Method to Madness.

At the time, I was enjoying the exploration of a new compositional method I had recently discovered. The first half of the piece obeys the rules of this method very strictly; at a certain point, however, the music cannot be contained by the rules any longer, and it overflows into a jazzy, Latin sounding tune. From there, it continues to approach the boiling point, ending in a frenzy that recalls nothing of the serene discipline of the opening measures.
