Wound Honey (2023)


Details
​Description:
 For Clarinet Trio

Duration: 8'

Instrumentation: Cl., Vc., Pno.

​Commission: terra invsisus

Programme Note
Honey has been used to dress wounds for millenia. This piece investigates its sugar sweetness with the astringency of iron-rich blood; its amber and red and bandange; its crystalline wax and clotting stasis.
