about

- Forget the last track, very different territory here. I had a younger brother who very sadly died at the age of 17. He was a troubled spirit and had a difficult time in this world, but I always remembered the innocence and exuberance of his early years. This piece, although short, attempts to show an arc from simple and harmonic to complex and conflicted. A difficult piece to write and pull off, much credit due my mixing engineer Bruce Kaphan for helping me work through this one. Processed instrumental fragments from some of my brother’s favorite songs are woven in as the piece moves toward the end; this was Bruce’s idea. My friend Jim Hurley helped me flesh out the orchestral parts after Bruce Bowers was no longer able to play effectively.
