Chrysalis Extended Full Score
for Orchestra
Dive deeper into Chrysalis Extended with a perusal score.
A chrysalis is what helps turn a caterpillar into a butterfly; it’s the transitional phase when the caterpillar gets wrapped inside a protective case and is given the time and space to become a butterfly. In my piece, the music sort of wraps around itself like a chrysalis, and you will hear musical ideas repeated and woven throughout. The music builds steadily to a big arrival near the end of the piece, and in this way it is reminiscent of the life cycle of a butterfly. Sometimes it takes a little longer to reach one’s full potential -- and that is okay! I dedicate this piece to young composers everywhere.
