Yearnings For Home
Yearnings I am excited to announce a new musical project that I am working on called Yearnings For Home. The project includes two violin concerti composed by Tristan Latchford, an English composer and friend, who I met at Peabody that will be performed in Cambridge, England this May (2024).
The principal concerto, written for and in collaboration with me, gives the title to the project. It is a programmatic work with theatrical elements based on a poem by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper entitled “Yearnings For Home.” The second concerto was written by Tristan 10 years ago and includes Baroque and Folk-Punk influences. The whole project has been an exciting, personal, and timely adventure for me and I am so grateful for Tristan’s enthusiasm, thoughtful listening, and rich music.
