(The Unannounced Arrival of the Princess to) Dancing Paupers
Violin, Clarinet, and Piano
1991
This piece begins with energetic dance music and ends abruptly with an awkward but stately promenade: evidently, the princess is young and pretentious. It was composed for a UO Composition Workshop with members of Continuum (New York) and subsequently performed at an Oregon Composers Forum concert.
