PROGRAM NOTE

Thread Sketches, for solo piano, was commissioned for the 2001 Pittsburg State University (Kansas) Festival of New Music. The work, lasting approximately six minutes, comprises multiple motivic iterations unfolding simultaneously on three hierarchical time-scales. That is, small-scale intervallic relationships, projected isomorphically in the domains of both pitch and rhythm, are also evidenced in the forms of broader phrase groups and, ultimately, in the large-scale framework that informs the entire composition. The title is borrowed from a fabric artwork by Juliarose Triebes, whose weavings and quilts incorporate similar iterative fractal paradigms and ideals.
