Program Notes
Unlove is based on the text of Pablo Neruda's poem If You Forget Me. While the music follows the emotions depicted through the text, the lines "everything carries me to you" and "If suddenly you forget me do not look for me, for I shall already have forgotten you" are represented through the contrasting use of A minor and D dorian modes.
Percussionists looking for a beautiful tonal work for vibraphone will find a perfect piece in Caleb Pickering’s “Unlove.” ...This is a beautiful work that is sure to be appreciated by listeners and can complement many performance environments.
