About
Luminescence is a song cycle based on eight poems from Etel Adnan's Sea, and was commissioned by Thomas Buckner. It celebrates the three-way friendship of Etel, Tom and the composer, and our shared love of the Pacific Ocean, which influenced the first song: here, the phrase lengths match the timing of long Pacific waves which I recorded in New Zealand, some years ago.
