Purple Whispers

這首非凡而富有描述性的作品以樂團成員之間的竊竊私語作為開場和結尾，營造出一種柔和而混亂的效果。簡潔的詩句出自作曲家之手："耳語在彩色的飛行中移動，尋找下一個黃昏的跡象，紫色如紫羅蘭生長，溫暖而豐富，為所有人所知"。隨著樂曲的進行，在鋼琴獨奏的引奏下，聽眾的情緒在動態範圍內得到了緊張和釋放，最後在寧靜的氣氛中結束了這首獨特而有效的作品。持續時間5:15

原文簡介:
This remarkable and descriptive work opens and closes with members of the ensemble whispering to one another, creating a soft yet chaotic effect. The simple poem is by the composer: “Whispers move in colored flight, seeking signs of next twilight, purple as the violets grow, warm but rich for all to know.” As the piece progresses, introduced by a solo piano, the listener is taken through a dynamic range of emotional tension and release before the quiet mood returns to close out this uniquely effective composition. Dur: 5:15
