Instrumentation
Program Notes
I began composing lead after having finished Platinum. I wanted it to provide a contrast to Platinum's rhythmic vitality, so I asked myself what would happen if I wrote music without relying on rhythm and counting as my primary devices. This led to a great deal of brooding and questioning, and resulted in music with an inert heaviness.
Platinum, on the other hand, was a breath of fresh air. It was the first piece I had written after working for two years on a concerto for percussion, and it came out as an extended burst of restless, rhythmic energy. The title represents images of bright, polished surfaces; hard, crisp edges; and the clear, ringing sound of metal that came to mind when reflecting on the music.[1]
