Clarinet and piano
Program notes:
In many ways, “cross-stitchings” exists like jagged quilt squares: repetition, deviation, the fabric is bunched up in places, but all the material is held together by a single thread. In this case, the single thread is a chord progression that is presented in its most pure form at the end of the piece. Although the form of “cross-stitchings” is quite simple—a cycling bass line is woven between shifting piano textures and arpeggiated clarinet lines—the music is driven forward by the changing pulse and constant play between musicians.
