Portraits of a Father
2018. 7 min.
instrumentation: Flute, Two voices, Piano
music: Fran Daniel Laucerica
text: Kobayashi Issa, Ludvig Holstein, Yehuda Amichai
written for: Papi
program note: Portraits of a Father explores different incarnations of the roles of father and child through a combination of clear and obscure connections which serve to express a sense of universality. Fatherhood is a multifaceted role which is not easily shaped into a clear-cut outline, but rather specific to the individual. In this sense, fatherhood is less of a matter of genetics and more of a matter of constancy. Like many, I’ve had several fathers in my life and I believe that through this piece, I honor all of them.
purchasing info: Digital download comes with the full score as well as a separate Flute/Father part in the PDF.
