Solitary Beacons
COVID-19 and the subsequent social distance caused by the virus has put an abrupt halt to live performance as we know it. In an attempt to adapt to our current reality while continuing to amplify the voices our community of composers, I began live streaming performances from my home. The music I’ve chosen to program is all long form and subdued, reflective of our newly altered relationship with time and our surroundings. New recordings will be uploaded to this page as they occur.
‘Solitary Beacons’ are short-wave radio transmissions airing constant single-letter identifiers in standard CW (A1A), typically using Morse code. These solitary beacons are also commonly referred to as ‘channel markers,’ as they are often used to occupy and identify specific frequencies while no other traffic is transmitted.
