Program Note
“Spunk” was written in the spirit of fun, punkiness, and trivial edginess. Incorporated are syncopated and original Mexican tunes. The combination of instruments was inspired by a jazz quartet I saw playing at a cocktail reception. “Spunk” for sax, guitar, violin, and bass was originally written for the RAM Players with Jeff Hudgins, Nadav Lev, Sabina Torsjan, and Hilliard Greene.
