PROGRAM
American Biomes (2021) — Jamie Wind Whitmarsh (b. 1988)
I. Tundra-struck: icy textures with vast expansive sound sources; loneliness and awe
II. Desert Shifts: dry desert-like sounds with perpetual motion
III. Prairie Nocturne: dark, contrapuntal
IV. Deciduous Interlude (Fauna): bursts of color; the forest is alive
V. Cat O’ Nine-Tails and the Nutrient Water: groove, Southern rock, swampy and murky
VI. Heartland (1202021): gentle, earnest, and sweet
VII. Coastal Passacaglia: aggressive waves of sound
VIII. Alpine Shadows: the ardor of climbing a mountain juxtaposed with the awe of the view
IX. Coniferous Interlude (Flora): dry, the leaves and bugs are rustling
X. Suburban Sprawl: continuously building out and expanding
Performed without pause
