mOSSY

Track One

Mossy is a dark, haunting duet that reflects the physical, emotional and intellectual consequences of constant intrusion and disruption.

The work gives expression to a mother’s daily life, where familial love evokes both positive and negative impulses; where frustration and desire compete with the need for space and independence; where feelings of claustrophobia conflict with a mother’s responsibility to provide a sense of happiness and well-being for her children. I have incorporated some of my own experiences as a mother in the creation of this fully electronic yet melodic score.
