Five Squared was composed in celebration of twenty-five years of the wonderful marriage of my half-sister Lisa and her husband, Dan Kubiske. Echoing their lives and personalities, the music is energetic and loving. A string quartet appropriately reflects the family they have built so beautifully: cello and viola Dan and Lisa, and the two violins, their sons Philip and Adam. The four, in unity, are my favorite ensemble.
