Richard Sanford (b. 1959)
Thais
The Thais (pronounced "thay-us") are a family of seashells
(Thaididae) which include the well-known "Rock" shells. They
are rather small and not at all rare, but have simple shapes and
curves interesting to many collectors. The composer based the
simple, strophic form of Thais on a subtractive sculptural model
like these shells, resulting in a sort of "swiss cheese"
counterpoint.
