lyrics
Palladium A cortege of clouds’ shifting planes reflected on a river, the currents weave deepens, yet motionless the dramatization of a fern unfolding, light illuminating the air for a moments’ threshold, when time, where we stand, corresponds to the day held firm, derived from the elegance of the equation, for what was once never here. - James Brasfield (b. 1952)

lyrics
NOW ALL THE FINGERS OF THIS TREE now all the fingers of this tree(darling)have hands,and all the hands have people;and more each particular person is(my love) alive than every world can understand and now you are and i am now and we’re a mystery which will never happen again, a miracle which has never happened before-- and shining this our now must come to then our then shall be some darkness during which fingers are without hands;and i have no you:and all trees are(any more than each leafless)its silent in forevering snow --but never fear(my own,my beautiful my blossoming)for also then’s until WHEN GOD DECIDED TO INVENT when god decided to invent everything he took one breath bigger than a circustent and everything began when man determined to destroy himself he picked the was of shall and finding only why smashed it into because —E.E. Cummings (1894-1962)

about

The works collected here are snapshots of my imagination in evolution—different sorts of energies and gestures engaging my aural imagery over more than two decades. And these are also a gaze at relationships; with family, friends, mentors, teachers, students; with people who make sound, with people who listen intently; and perhaps a deeper look into aural relationships arising from a music’s internal logic.

All of these works share my fondness for writing with particular people in mind. If composing comes from a desire to communicate in sound, then composing for a specific musician is a musical love letter to them. The pieces I write for friends hold a special place in my heart, as the sounds recall their individual voices, our collaborative time together, and the banter of developing ideas.

-Ed Jacobs
