Program Note

"I personally do not drink, but the notion of music as surreal, hallucinatory, delirious, or delusional runs through the writings of masters at least since the Homeric Hymns. So, this trio, punctuated by solos for each of the instruments, is my contribution to that world."

--Matthew H. Fields
