Pan Quartet No. 1, "Constellation"

for steel pan quartet

“Constellation” transports listeners into the celestial expanse where myth and music intertwine. The quartet explores constellations and asterial phenomena through shimmering textures and resonant harmonies that evoke the delicate tension between starlight’s stillness and the universe’s ceaseless movement. Listeners will hear celestial patterns taking shape, moments of spacious stillness, and an upward lift, as if gazing into a night sky bursting with infinite, star-speckled possibility. The opening material was also used to create my first solo tenor pan piece Lyra, for the constellation named after Orpheus's lyre.
