Pamela J. Marshall

Nature-inspired, classically-based chamber music, choral pieces, and synthesized ambient tracks, -- quirky rhythms, spicy harmonies, catchy melodic bits

I compose music for chamber groups, orchestra, synthesizers, and off-beat instruments like mandolin ensemble. You'll hear beautiful sounds, dissonant harmonies, quirky rhythms. I'm inspired by nature, poetry, and any old sound - pots and pans, crystal glasses, wind and water, and especially birds. Influences include Bartok and Messiaen, sometimes a little bit of jazz and improvisation.

Story behind the song

Each movement of the Quinteto is based on a poem by Cuban poet Carlos Pintado. "Denme la sombra" is based on Pintado's hymn-like "Escrito in 1988". This beautiful poem wishes for the full experience of life, to "see heaven and hell", but especially to have "love, light, sunsets". In the music, I balanced a chorale treatment of the words, as if the poem were sung, with a restless drama.
