Thursday (1999) Duration: ca. 12'00" Publisher: Robert Paterson Music (ASCAP)
The text for Thursday was conceived and written by two close friends, Bridget Meeds and Kenny Berkowitz, both excellent writers who possess an acute and often exquisitely wry sense of humor. Each movement attempts to paint a literary picture of the central character by introducing various people who are related to her. The work has six short movements, each one representing a different character.
Robert Paterson
"The song-set Thursday especially appealed to me, both words and music. The characterization was clear and convincing. I hope you are thinking about more vocal music!"
John Harbison, Composer
"[Thursday] is really a fantastic, brilliantly-written, beautifully crafted, clever and witty piece, and written very well for the piano!"
