(2022) Glitch

For String Quartet & (Optional) Electronics

Commissioned by the Delgani Quartet


A sonic exploration of the challenges, triumphs, and occasional failures that come with life. 

Glitch is a work for string quartet and electronics that explores the never-ending human need for troubleshooting in real life. Written for the Delgani Quartet and Clarice Assad on sound effects and electronics, the piece is an interplay between humans and machines. The goal of the work is to create a sense of unease and tension. The music is constantly interrupted by nuances and effects, making it feel like one is struggling to maintain control. Ultimately, Glitch provides a unique and unsettling listening experience highlighting the imperfections of humans and machines alike.
