When Dr. Megan Lanz first brought up the idea to collaborate on a new piece for flute, she was insistent and energetic about her willingness to try nearly anything. Unbroken explores the unique ability of both the flute and piano to perform both percussively and lyrically. The piece is written in a way that keeps the music in constant, restless, motion while creating contrast through unexpected moments, colors and techniques unique to the flute.

Overall, Unbroken attempts to capture the spirit of musicians like Megan who are willing to jump into unknown territory and support new music with unrelenting enthusiasm.
