Anne Akiko Meyers (violin); Alisa Weilerstein (cello); Adam Neiman (piano);
Nicholas Kitchen; Melissa Kleinbart (violins); Hsin-Yun Huang (viola); Wilhelmina Smith (cello); The Cypress String Quartet



In her Piano Trio, Higdon explores the relationship between sound and color, and the potential for such elements to convey different moods. The three movements of Voices depict contrasting states of mind, from highly agitated to serene. In Impressions for string quartet, the composer returns to the world of impressionist painting as her source of inspiration.
