Program Note
The title of this piece refers to a Bruce Nauman neon sculpture which contains the text “Run from Fear” above the text “Fun from Rear.” This piece is based on the minor third E-G which comes from the first song I learned to play on guitar: “About a Girl” from the Nirvana Unplugged album. As in Nauman’s sculpture, this piece strives to be both serious and light-hearted at the same time. Originally written for the NOW Ensemble, this piece was revised for the Boston Modern Orchestra Project on commission from Bowdoin College in celebration of the opening of the Studzinski Recital Hall.
