Alias Press presents 'Mountain Laurel' for flute and fixed media by composer Blake Buehler. 

The composer writes about this piece, 'Sophora secundiflora, also known as Texas Mountain Laurel, is a native evergreen ornamental tree, valued for its handsome, dark green foliage and lush lavender blooms. The fragrance of Texas mountain laurel flowers is reminiscent of artificial grape products. The lacquer red seeds were valued by indigenous people for ceremonial use; they contain the highly poisonous alkaloid cytisine, a substance related to nicotine and widely cited as a narcotic and hallucinogen.'
