Jump (2022) was written for the San Marco Chamber Music Society. The work is propelled by a vibrant, kinetic energy, allowing the ensemble’s lyrical expressivity and rhythmic vitality to emerge through constantly shifting textures and exchanges of momentum.

The piece unfolds as an expressive journey shaped by a recurring, groove-like thematic idea that reappears in shifting emotional contexts — at times driving and propulsive, at others unfolding in more spacious, lyrical forms. This material binds together contrasting episodes of color, momentum, and intensity.

Ultimately, Jump unfolds as a continuous expressive arc — a story shaped not by external program, but through evolving gestures of energy, color, and momentum.
