Insomnia by Cody Holmes

Insomnia is a challenging duet consisting of colorful harmonies meant to portray the free and flowing nature of the human spirit. The challenge in performing the piece lies in lining up fast permutations and phrasing a rubato melody that at times is played in tandem with the fast permutations. When executing these musical ideas at a high level, an enjoyable experience is created for the performers and audience. Insomnia was written in dedication to Cody’s late father, Ben Holmes.
