Programme Note

As One was commissioned by the American Guild of Organists for its Biennial National Convention in Kansas City in July2018.

In the piece I have tried to evoke the temporal suspension intimated in Emily Dickinson’s posthumously published poem 'A loss of something ever felt I', in which I feel she dwells on the idea of death from dual-yet-concurrent perspectives of youth and old age.
