“Write something pretty,” she said. A lullaby for my muse.
Dedicated to my wife, MingMing, who is my guiding light and inspiration, Sleeping Light, Spinning World was composed for guitarist Aaron Larget-Caplan as part of the New Lullaby Project. Aaron premiered it November 1, 2016 at Jordan Hall in Boston, and recorded it on Nights Transfigured, released in 2020.
Sleeping Light, Spinning World is also one of fifteen 21st-century scores for solo guitar included in Nights Transfigured: Music of the New Lullaby Project, Volume One. Commissioned, curated, and edited by Aaron Larget-Caplan, published by the American Composers Alliance in association with ALC Publishing.
