Premiered July 15, 2023 at the Cascadia Composers "In Good Hands" student piano concert at Portland State University, in Portland, Oregon, USA.Composed in 2023.Level: Intermediate level; great for a high school student recital, but could be a very managable piece for a college student as well. Composition notes: The first of a trio of pieces called "Breathing Structures", this piece was written for and premiered/performed by Andrew Bren as part of the Cascadia Composers' In Good Hands program (where composers write custom works student performers). This is a expressive, post-minimalist influenced composition, with flexible tempos and dynamics. Great for students who are interested in late 20th-century/early 21st-century classical music influenced by Philip Glass, John Adams, Michael Torke, and Ludovico Einaudi. The following poem serves as the program note for this work: The Emergence Stepping out that place of hidingAn infernal state of comfortWith smothering holds of safetyShielding from rays of lucidity. Stumbling forwardOne step pastThe formerly towering limit.A rush of adrenalineAn urge of retreatBut staying firmly plantedWith bristling folliclesAnd quickened breathing.Transformation is jarringShedding skin is tiringYet soon will exhilarateReleasing onwardLeaving old pathsAs distant dreamsPainted by the hazeOf the oncoming gleam.Performing Rights Organization: ASCAPComposer's website: https://www.nicholasyandell.com

The Emergence

Stepping out that place of hiding
An infernal state of comfort
With smothering holds of safety
Shielding from rays of lucidity.

Stumbling forward
One step past
The formerly towering limit.

A rush of adrenaline
An urge of retreat
But staying firmly planted
With bristling follicles
And quickened breathing.

Transformation is jarring
Shedding skin is tiring
Yet soon will exhilarate
Releasing onward
Leaving old paths
As distant dreams
Painted by the haze
Of the oncoming gleam.
