Amanda Davis, and Allison Dean-siren vocals Sketches on an Autumn Day (2012) Jeff Payne Michael Hanna-soprano saxophone; Ryan Key-alto saxophone; Will Brani-tenor saxophone; Jeff Payne-baritone saxophone Brushstrokes on a Simple Field was wri t ten in the spring of 2012, and was the first serious composition of mine. I was interested in writ ing a piece employing quartal and quintal harmony. The title came af ter the work was complete, as the overall sweetness of the piece evoked the imagery of clear and open field. Libera Nos was wri t ten in the fall of 2013 and uses text from the Catholic mass. It changes tonal areas frequently with the use of smooth voice leading. Doxology Deliver us, Lord, from every evil, and grant us peace in our day. In your mercy keep us free from sin and protect us from all anxiety as we wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen Doxology Libera nos, quaesumus, Domine, ab omnibus malis, da propit ius pacem in diebus nostris, ut, ope misericordiae tuae adiuti, et a paccato simus semper liberi et ab omni per tu rba t ione securi: exspectantes beatam spem et adventum Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christ. Quia tuum est regnum, et potestas, et gloria in saecula. Amen Song Among Hills was wri t ten during the summer of 2012, and was my first a t t empt at concert band music. I wro te the piece with a young high school band in mind, and was for tunate enough to have the suppor t of my high school band directors in having the piece performed, critiqued, and recorded. Thank you to Shawn O'Kelley and David Gorham, along with the s tudents of the Owasso High School Concert Band and Wind Ensemble for performing and recording the piece. Mythos Unbound is a video game being developed by s tudents of Dr. David Fredrick to teach Greek classic l i terature and Roman culture to s tudents at the University of Arkansas. I became involved at the recommendat ion of two fr iends on his team, and have since been in charge of composing, recording, and producing musical content for the game. The levels chosen for this presentat ion were chosen for the different ways the music acted in the gameplay. In the "House" level, it was impor tan t that different rooms or areas of the house have different a tmospheres or moods, to be accentuated by the musical content. I used different orchestra t ions of one melody to give the house both continuity and contrast . The second level, "Sinews of Zeus", called for a sense of always moving toward something dangerous. For this approach, I wrote one piece of music that had six parts. These parts, or layers, would be laid out of the geography of the game in a sequence that would enhance the tension of the game as you progressed. The third level, "Scylla and Charybdis", required three different tracks that could be cut and looped as needed. The fourth level in the presentat ion, "Oresteia 3", was a level based on the mechanics of the Ace Attorney games. The level is set in a trial, and required background music along with music for objections, test imonies, and other events during the trial sequence. Sketches on an Autumn Day was wri t ten in the fall of 2012 af ter spending a beautiful au tumn day driving around Northwest Arkansas. It is obvious in the brightness of the opening section that it was influenced by a wonderful au tumn day. The piece was wri t ten as an exercise in motivic use and manipulat ion. Acknowledgements : To all my family and fr iends that drove over from Owasso, thank you. To my brother , thank you so much for your excitement over my music. Even though you express that exci tement quietly, it gives me great pleasure that you want to hear more. Lauren, thank you for great talks and f rank encouragement . Mom and Dad, thank you for suppor t ing me in my choice to be a musician, for encouraging me along the way, and for challenging me. I would like to thank David Gorham for giving me advice on composing, both as a career and an art, and for recording Song Among Hills for this recital. Thank you Shawn O'Kelley for being an encouragement and for performing the piece with your group as well. I would also like to thank all the per formers that have helped me tonight. Without you, this music would be nothing, and it means the world to me that you would help me bring this music to life. Lastly, I would like to thank Dr. Greeson for pushing me to be a better composer over the years. We hope you enjoy tonight's performance.
