Part-Partita
Instrumentation: Violin
2012
Fifteen Minutes of Fame

Composed for Douglas DaSilva's "My Father's Violin" project, which included an extended Fifteen Minutes of Fame concert.

While contemplating what to compose for this project, I recalled that my own father is a fan of Bach's unaccompanied string pieces. From there it was an easy step to find and adapt a small portion of the Sarabande from Bach's Partita no.2 in d minor. Part-Partita is a meditation on the Bach, lost in thought and in time.
