About the Score

'Intelligent' sets a text by Charles Anthony Silvestri's "I Wonder," and asks the question, "Why? If humans are the only species to suffer greed, ambition, hatred, war?" Are we intelligent to inflict such pain and anguish on ourselves and those around us? The work takes sharp melodic and harmonic turns to wed the text with the music. Ultimately we ask ourselves, "Why?" in an urgent and fervent manner. How is it possible that we are capable of such evil under the guise of intelligence and evolution? As is true with all the texts from Silvestri's poem, these works pose a question, not an answer. Perhaps we may find answers in asking questions such as this.
