LOCKWOOD Annea, RCSC

RCSC (2001) was commissioned by pianist Sarah Cahill as one of a set of seven short pieces by women composers honoring Ruth Crawford Seeger, whose music I deeply admire. The title is a near-palindrome of their names, and for its pitch content I drew on the ten-note row from the final movement of Crawford’s String Quartet 1931. RCSC is dedicated to Sarah Cahill.
