This video featuring the 1st movement of my String Quartet No. 1 in C (2001) is also a trubute to E. E. Cummings, my favorite American poet. The piece was performed at a NACUSAsf concert by the Blossom Quartet on Nov. 8, 2002 in Palo Alto. E. E. Cummings was also an artist, and almost all of the paintings are by him. The only one I'm not sure about happens at 0:54. I've also included one of my favorite Cummings poems. Cummings was well known for his unusual punctuation and lack of capitol letters.
i thank You God for most this amazing day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today, and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay great happening illimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing breathing any--lifted from the no of all nothing--human merely being doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
