verge was commissioned by Copland House for its CULTIVATE 2024 emerging composers’ institute. It was premiered by the Music from Copland House ensemble (Moran Katz, clarinet; Pala Garcia, violin; Alexis Pia Gerlach, cello; and Margaret Kampmeier, piano) on June 11, 2024 at Elebash Hall, The Graduate Center of the City University of New York. CULTIVATE 2024 fellowships and commissions were funded by the Amphion Foundation, ArtsWestchester, ASCAP Foundation, BMI Foundation, Aaron Copland Fund for Music, Alice M. Ditson Fund of Columbia University, Friends of Copland House, Jandon Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, NewMusicUSA, and New York State Council on the Arts.
Program Note: How can a verge, edge, or border function in sound? What does it mean to be on the verge of something sonically, or contrastingly, sound that diverges in the opposite direction? And what about my verges? My neurodivergence - OCD - and being on the verge of anxiety...how did this impact the choices I made while composing this piece?
