What is Your World?

For any Saxophone | 8’ | 2019

Program Notes: What is your World? was written in collaboration with Queer saxophonists and the wider Queer community. The goal of the work was to give voice to queer voices from across the world (or at least the internet). As queer folk, we are often times silenced, and our opinions are made to be irrelevant. My goal was to ask the question “What is your World?” To show that our worlds are more than our sexuality; that we are a diverse community; and that we have the agency to speak up when we want, and agency to not what we don’t want. 117 words/phrases were provided anonymously by members of the Queer Community, and have all made their way into the piece.

Commissioners: Grace Gelpi, Jared Waters, McCall Kochevar, Jolene Marchetti
