	  Tonal. Commissioned/Premiered by the Redlands' New Music
	  Ensemble. (A swale is a meadow or a marsh where a lot of
	  wild plants grow together. The composer discovered the word
	  when a horse named Swale won the Kentucky Derby several
	  years ago. Since her work is primarily collage of newly
	  composed musical swatches, she has used the name
	  extensively.)
