"Daphne's Wedding" for Soprano and Chamber Orchestra (2019)
https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2qz1k3td
This song was originally written for the wedding of a close friend of mine in 1997. This revised version is scored for chamber orchestra with harpsichord and
vibes, and is inspired by the light and humorous touch of Jacques Ibert's Divertissement (1930). A driving Tudor dance is always present amidst all the
tomfoolery. The piece is based on a text by Thomas Morley from his ‘Canzonets to three Voices’ (1593).
