Notes on "Beautiful"
Notes on "Beautiful" was commissioned by Anthony de Mare for the Liaisons project through the generosity of the Banff Centre for the Arts and was written in the Valentine Studio, Leighton Arts Colony, Banff, Alberta. The piece is a transformation of the duet between mother and son, "Beautiful", from Stephen Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George, and dedicated to Anthony de Mare and the memory of my mother.
