I Am a Spectrum is a poem of awakening, discovery and loss of innocence. It is written from a female perspective as she grows from a young girl into womanhood. The more things she is exposed to, both enlighten and take away the innocence of childhood. As she learns and absorbs new information and life experiences, the sweet little girl starts to fade. The colours are used both metaphorically and comparatively. The colours also set up imagery and simile. I watched an awkward 10 year old walk into my wife’s studio for voice lessons. I watched her grow through junior high and high school where I had the fortune to be her teacher. I watched her grow into a beautiful, talented and confident woman. The transformation was akin to the caterpillar to a butterfly. As the text was penned, I was transported back to times where our paths crossed thousands of times. These are great memories but also a realization of my own aging. I hope the text and the music are worthy of the performer. It is my musical gift to the girl who gave me countless musical gifts.
