"Dance of the Rain" was a commission from the Oregon Mandolin Orchestra. This was an incredible opportunity to compose outside my comfort zone. I had never compose for Mandolin before, and this gave me the opportunity to compose for an entire mandolin orchestra. The piece became the "Dance of the Rain" because everytime I would sit down to work on it, it would be raining. I'd be looking out the window thinking and then would hear this kind of dance rhythm that the rain created on my roof and rain gutter. I found myself sort of entranced and started writing what I was hearing. It is pointillistic in several places to give the illusion of space and raindrops falling all around.
