Clouds, Wind, Stars by Lawrence Kramer published on 2017-12-15T18:07:49Z "Clouds, Wind, Stars" is an evocation of freewheeling energy with the barest pause for reflection. The music vacillates between serene and excited, contemplative and impulsive modes of experience but the pulse never flags. Composed in 2008, "Clouds. Wind. Stars" is a little over six minutes log. It is both an independent composition--winner of the Composers Concordance 2013 "Generations" prize--and the Finale of my String Quartet no. 8, "Reflections and Memories," which premiered (via Zoom) in the summer of 2020, performed by the Eurasia String Quartet. A video of the premiere is available online. Genre Classical
