Program Note
The new music ensemble Zeitgeist commissioned 30 works of three minutes or less for its 30th anniversary season in 2008. My contribution, a little musical joke called Quiptych, was scored for soprano sax, piano and percussion. I arranged it for piano 4-hands for performance by my friend Sonja Thompson with her duet partner Karen Becker. The title was suggested by its form: a truncated rounded binary. If you need a short, funny duet, look no further.
