PROGRAM NOTE
|
|||||
|
Boondoggle. In the past few
years I have become
more and more attracted to words for the musical ideas they evoke or
hold; not their definition. Often it is simply the shape of the
letters, how the word looks on the page, or how it sounds that catches
my attention. And from this, on a very personal level, a musical
association is derived. Boondoggle is the most abstract title I have
used to date and I find it virtually impossible to explain verbally the
musical connections to the word itself.
