Pilgrimado (2021)
Viola and Fixed-audio.Duration: 8 minutes | Composed: 2021 | World Premiere: April 2022 | Commissioned as part of the ANAM Set Festival | Recording: Coming Soon.
The title of this work is taken from the world’s most widely spoken constructed language, Esperanto. This language was created with the intention of becoming a universal second language and is currently the only such language that has a population of native speakers.
When discussing the composition of this work with violist Ariel Postmus, for whom it was
written, a mutual adoration of Scandinavian culture was a prominent part of our exchange.
As such it seemed appropriate to write a piece that journeyed in and from that area of our
global fascination.
