Cyan Lyricism (2024)

Besetzung: Sopran (textlos), Soloflöte, Flötenensemble

Bemerkung: Tyson Gholston Davis (2024): "Cyan Lyricism, for wordless soprano, flute, and flute ensemble is a work that responds to Lake Placid, a painting by the American abstract expressionist Helen Frankenthaler. The painting’s interplay of hues and fluid forms directly influenced the composition’s structure and development": https://tysongholsdaviscomposer.com/cyan-lyricism-for-ensemble-2024/

Bemerkung: Tyson Gholston Davis (2023): "Desert Pass is a work that is a response to a painting of the same name by the American abstract expressionist Helen Frankenthaler.

…Echoes of River and Mist… (2025)

Besetzung: Streichquartett

Bemerkung: Tyson Gholston Davis (2025): "…echoes of river and mist… (2025) is a work that draws inspiration from American abstract expressionist Helen Frankenthaler. Frankenthaler’s painting, titled Barometer (1992), is a pensive, still, white and grey canvas that is slightly textured due to the thick layers of paint in certain areas": https://tysongholsdaviscomposer.com/echoes-of-river-and-mist-2025/

Bemerkung: Tyson Gholston Davis (2023): "…Expansions of Light, for piano (2023) is a triptych piece in response to Winter Light (1979), a painting by American abstract expressionist Helen Frankenthaler.
