Peter Garland, Sarah Cahill
After the Wars
Album US 2015 on Cold Blue Music label
Classical (Contemporary, Post-Modern)
"After the Wars," a beautifully clangorous four-movement piano solo, was written for pianist Cahill as part of her “A Sweeter Music” series of commissioned works based around the concept of “peace” from a broad variety of composers (from Terry Riley to Frederic Rzewski to Yoko Ono to…). Knitting together this work, Garland writes, “The principal musical idea in all four [movements] is that of sustained tones, creating a sense of echo, distance, and ringing/fading away…. Each movement is like a single image, simply stated with relatively little temporal or thematic development.”
