SF.SEA-079-00. "Maji" takes its name and inspiration from the Swahili word for water. its Arabic root "ma" means not only "water," but also "luster or splendor," often in reference to a diamond. The composer writes. "This word captured my imagination at once. There, in two short syllables, was a word which held both the beauty of water, and the suggestion that it is as precious as a jewel. " True to its etymological root, "Maji" opens with sparkle, but - mirroring its fluid namesake - this bright beginning soon takes a more winding path. Each musical idea flows into the next naturally but unpredictably. picture a small creek in which water gurgles and bubbles, creates swirling eddies, shimmers from within its still surface, widens into a slow deep pool, and then suddenly rushes into a narrow channel. This image of flowing, continuous movement is the work's guiding principle. indeed, whenever musical themes make reappearances - just as in Heraclitus' ever-changing river - they are never the same twice. Commissioned by Minnesota Philharmonic Orchestra, with commissioning partner Saint Paul Central High School. conductors Joseph Schlefke and Matthew Oyen. Minneapolis & Saint Paul, MN.
