About
Grace is a musical meditation on Heinrich von Kleist's brief essay The Puppet Theatre, in which two friends discuss the concept offerace as suggested by a simple puppet show, touching upon how easy it is to lose grace, and how one may find it again. This work was commissioned by and is dedicated to Robert Van Sice, percussionist, marimba player, and teacher at the Yale School of Music, the Peabody Conservatory of Music, and most recently, the Curtis Institute of Music. For advanced players.
