2021 ASCAP Foundation Rudolf Nissim Prize winner
Written for the USC Thornton Symphony
Lumina explores the spectrum of light and dark and the murkiness in between. Using swift contrasts between bright, sharp timbres and cloudy textures and dense harmonies, the piece captures sudden bursts of radiance amongst the eeriness of shadows.
