Back in my sophomore year of high school, I wrote a very large wind ensemble work entitled Grieving. This work was a musical description of the five stages of grief, and was a large milestone in my compositional growth. In 2023, Genevieve Rucker, a hornist at the University of Central Arkansas, asked me to write a piece for horn quartet that is designed to be inspired from grief in some way, and this is the result. I took inspiration from my earlier composition but I certainly did not go to the extreme with musical expression like I did before. This piece offers a lot of chromatic harmonies, lots of emotional complexity, but it also offers resolution, a sense of completion in some way. Acceptance - not happiness, but acceptance.
