Happy Idiot was written for Sam Solomon last year. I wanted to create a musical space, a set of possibilities for Sam to play with at his own temporal pleasure, while lurching between happy idiocy and mystery, as our own lives often do. The piece is composed of musical modules, which might be thought of as narratives or memories; Sam's job is to create his own fragmented narrative by jumping amidst the notes.
