Mornings of Creation

Mornings of Creation is a five-movement suite for piano trio. This music was created during the composers customary composing hours—the morning. Thus, the message is one of the freshness of a new day, and the energy of creative impulse."First Notes" opens with light patterns in the strings, as bird calls. Initially presented individually, the calls join together as a precursor to the main theme of the movement, presented by cello and then violin. A middle section in the minor modefeatures tremoli in the piano. This is a restless, energetic section which leads to the return of the theme. The movement ends with the cello and violin intertwined, while the piano plays bird calls above.
