Program Notes

Chad Heiny read A LOT in my college days (books, yes books), something Chad Heiny is constantly trying to get back into despite the many medias being thrown at and distracting us on a minute-by-minute basis. The eight movements of Mementos are my aural realization of a subconscious full of the disturbing, hilarious, darkened, and painfully beautiful words found in Chuck Palahniuk’s literary works: many of which I read during my time in graduate school at LSU. Mementos was written for and is dedicated to Jude Traxler.
