for String Quartet

& Chamber Music Mentorship Program at Linfield University.
PROGRAM NOTES:
Cordis Aurei for String Quartet (2023) was originally written in 2022 for Rain Santiago’s sister, Sheri, and expanded upon and rearranged for strings. It is directly inspired by the works of Joe Hisaishi and the scoring he has done for films by Hayao Miyazaki. “Cordis Aurei” is Latin for “Heart of Gold”; the pizzicato strings that make up a majority of the piece capture a sense of wonder for the world and love for life.
