Program Notes
The Artemis Plan is a lunar exploration program initiated and outlined by NASA in September of 2020. It’s key components include setting humanity on a sustainable course to the moon, landing humans on the moon, creating a human-robotic presence on the moon, and eventually expanding to Mars. This piece, scored for 8 percussionists, imagines the initial exploration phase, the discovery and colonization, and the unknown that lies ahead. With our population ever growing, and the Earth’s climate in danger, a new generation will have to find creative ways to sustain life. The Artemis Generation could be a big part of the solution. This work was commissioned by Matthew Baker, Alex Singer and The Cooper Middle Band from McLean, VA.
