diepenveen

for singing cellist, 7.5min, written for India Yeshe Gailey (2020)

how does one describe accurately the sensation of a light
breeze and shadows moving to you through
a willow tree and to whom
some things change and no one notices
a car light fades and no one notices
the world could be turning a hair
slower than usual and it would do
so quietly
—“diepenveen” from small forms (2017), Yaz Lancaster
