About Fabrications:
Often I write music with fairly complicated programmatic intentions along with forms that echo or amplify them. However, I also enjoy music that simply unfolds a process or a ‘conceit’. Fabrication 3a: Dodge is the unchoreographed version of Fabrication 3: Dodge: a component part of a larger 32-movement cycle for various ensembles ranging from solos and duos to works for orchestra. These Fabrications explore more mechanical approaches to generating music. Each has a subtitle; a synonym of ‘fabrication’ which says something about the piece itself.

Fabrication 3a is a stationary version, slightly abridged, of Fabrication 3: Dodge. In both versions, however, it’s easy to hear how the clarinet and violin keep locking in with each other and then slithering apart.
