EDES (2007) for alto flute, clarinet, violin, 'cello, & piano

The central focus of EDES is the notes the title spells: E-D-Eb, which is a musicial representation of the name of the Russian composer Edison Denisov. The piece was composed for a competition honoring him. The strings are tuned scordatura, designed to produce natural harmonics relating more strongly to E, D, and Eb. Overall the piece is minimal but lush and full of color.
