Paula Diehl began her compositional career by studying music theory and composition first at American University and later at Temple University. After her studies, she developed her own, completely new compositional system, called “Separation,” after which this album is titled. A variety of Diehl’s works have been chosen for this release, ranging from works for small chamber ensemble to full orchestra. All of the pieces recorded on this album have been composed in the last 30 years.
