Sherlock Tango

June 2021 (for bandoneon, violin, cello, and piano)

Inspired by the world’s beloved Sherlock Holmes, this piece begins with a creepy carousel-like music that the mischievous Moriarty, the arch-enemy of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s mastermind detective. Holmes intervenes before the situation becomes too perilous, looking for clues and solving the puzzle before humanity suffers great destruction. The love-hate relationship between the consulting detective and the consulting criminal progresses throughout the wild, maniacal tango.
