Canetti at Carnival

Canetti

Canetti

This was composed for the New Orleans Composers Orchestra in 2010.  The piece is in two parts: Feast of Thighs and The Power of Unmasking.   The piece was to integrate, in a light way, an awareness of forces that occur in crowds during a carnival (dark), the light, unself-conscious releases that occur at that time (light).
