Composer note
Parallel Play was commissioned for Allison Loggins-Hull's New Music USA-sponsored project Diametrically Composed, which asked five composers who also happened to be mothers to compose music about motherhood. The hardest part about motherhood for me is the letting go: embracing the vulnerability. I think this is true for my children, too, just in a different way. Parallel Play sets a dreamy, restless melody in the flute atop a grounded, supportive foundation in the piano, but in two slightly different harmonic worlds. These parallel narratives pull, play, and chafe at one another sometimes teasing, at others, imploring in search of something approaching grace in vulnerability.
