Pastoral

"Seasons" for guitar, written for Michael Lorimer and commissioned by the Michigan Council for the Arts, is a pastoral piece, one of a long tradition of "Seasonal" works. It stars and ands, however, with winter, which is somewhat unusual, and the seasonalbreaks in the movements are not determined by the solstices - more by the moments one feels sure things are changing, have changed, and will change again. Here in Michigan, spring and summer flow together more than they do further East; late summer is almost another season from early summer; falls are hearty but crepuscular; winters are long.
