“All
Stars Aligned was
originally to be a set of
variations on a theme
that is almost hidden in
the opening bars.
However, the piece took
on much more of a
fantasia feel and shape
as I wrote it and it
could be argued that a
second theme first heard
in the violin of the
ground (derived from
material in bar 5)
becomes more dominant
than the first as the
piece progresses. The
piece is in one
continuous movement but
is in three distinct
sections and tempi:
medium, slow and fast.
The material shares some
similarities with my
piano trio,
Nightswimming, and in
some ways can be seen as
a companion piece (minus
the cello of course). The
title comes from a track
on an album by the artist
St. Vincent called Marry
Me which I hope is
appropriate for a piece
commissioned to celebrate
a wedding
anniversary.†Joe
