Troubadour (2016-17)
I. Invocation, II. Wraith
oboe and offstage cello
7'30"

The oboist takes on the role of a mysterious troubadour. While the first movement is both joking and sinister, the second is a goodbye. The musician's ancient and grinning spirit fades into oblivion. An invisible companion aids his final journey.

-Sagar Anupindi and Daniel Kaler, virtual, Anupindi Residence, Ann Arbor, Michigan, May 31, 2021.
-Andrew Cooper and Emily Camras, Stamps Auditorium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, March 15, 2017.
