about

Titles are difficult. After finishing this work, I was having a major block concerning a title. My wife and I were visiting our youngest daughter, Kallen, and were out to dinner with her and three of her friends, so I posed the question: “How do you name a piece, and what does it signify?” As they started to mock my working titles and suggestions, I mentioned an album that I admired by Carl Stone, who named the pieces on a CD after restaurants in Los Angeles. My daughter couldn’t stop laughing, but when she finally caught her breath she said, “Name it after this restaurant (Sakka Blue)!” About that time our bald, heavily pierced and tattooed waitress brought me my sushi: tuna, salmon and two types of fish roe. This piece is, I am sure, the best piece named after an entree in a sushi restaurant. Like my order it is colorful, a little funky, and full of tasty surprises while avoiding being too heavy. Enjoy!
