Deliquescent : for solo cello with voice

Description

Written for my father in the last days of his life, Deliquescent is an experience in quiet and subtle concentration — a consideration of our experience of time, stillness, anticipation, and what remains after something is gone. It was largely composed at the Avaloch Music Institute, Boscawen, NH.Deliquescent:1. tending to melt or dissolve, especially : tending to undergo gradual dissolution and liquefaction by the attraction and absorption of moisture from the air. (Of a solid) tending to absorb moisture from the air and dissolve in it.2. having repeated division into branches : elms are deliquescent trees– Douglas J. Cuomo
