| The songs explore the nature of desire: it’s visions of perfection, it’s implacability and distorted perspectives, and it’s renewing power. The songs were commissioned by mezzo-soprano Marcia St. Clair, and were made possible in part through a grant from the Maryland State Arts Council. |

| Express: a bus ride in one act (1983) is a chamber opera of 45 minutes duration, scored for five voices (Soprano, Mezzo Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone) accompanied by a thirteen-piece orchestra. The work begins as a bus starts on its morning route and ends when it reaches its destination. What might normally be spoken on a bus is spoken, while singing represents the character's inner monologue. The five characters have generic names, Mother, Daughter, Old Woman, First Man, and Second Man while extras, or cardboard cutouts read or stare out the windows endlessly. The Mother's reading from Milton's Paradise Lost becomes a linking thread weaving through the larger them of isolation. The libretto is by the composer. |
