Abstract

Shadowless is an experiment in manipulation of a single motive to create a large scale work. This motive, shown in the very first two measures of the piece in the piano part, is continually morphed throughout the entirety of the piece as a unifying characteristic. Melodic elements were also drawn from the notes of the very same motive. Shadowless is scored for chamber orchestra and has a duration of approximately fourteen minutes.
