Program Notes:

I have always found Celtic knots to have a mesmerizing quality. The way these illustrations adorn medieval manuscripts such as the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels has left such a powerful impact on history that they remain iconic and recognizable to this day. The way the lines weave over and under one another inspired me to attempt a similar effect in the relationship between the violin and clarinet in my composition, Interlace.
