In Time's Wake

In Time’s Wake was completed in February 2000.  Conceived as an overture to the new millennium, it is a musical expression of the hopes and fears of an uncertain future.

In Time’s Wake was commissioned by and is dedicated to cellist Elizabeth Simkin.

This work was commissioned by and dedicated to the deeply gifted cellist and friend Elizabeth Simkin. I was just finishing up my days as a graduate student at Cornell, when Liz approached me about composing a work for her.
