VIRGA RUMINATION (2018)

Virga Rumination (2018) is a tuba meditation in the rain. Throughout the piece rain sounds are heard and the tuba mimics many of these sounds through extended techniques. Virga, is “a mass of streaks of rain appearing to hang under a cloud and evaporating before reaching the ground.” The rain in Virga Rumination makes it to the ground and mingles with the meditation.
