This work is part of some of the early works I did after I became manager for Trinity Chamber Concerts (TCC), Written for Soprano, Susheel Bibbs, with whom I did concerts for as TCC & "The Musical Offering" record store in Berkeley and others(?).

performed on the Trinity Chamber Concerts series 1984

Written for Susheel Bibbs, soprano

An ethereal and uplifting musical composition

I am Flying home is like the wanderer
who is never and always home.

This work originally was in three movement, but for the revision done in January of 2019, I only kept a couple of the many ideas presented in the original, and I only used the words:

"I am flying to the place called home" and "high" or scrambled permutations of these nine words

 

All that is is all that is
There's nothing outside of it
A equals A,
and
A equals B,
B equals A,
A equals C
B equals C
and
C equals B
C equals A
These things are different points of view of the same thing.
