About the work:
Eyelid for solo alto saxophone is a part of ANATOMY, a series of solos for various instruments that are all based on different parts of the human body. Each solo focuses on how characteristics of a body part, however subtle or minute, can hold a story in their details.

“Eyelid” was premiered at Illinois State University in April 2018.
