Underhill’s Gaudí Madrigali were commissioned by musica intima in 2019 for premiere at ‘The Voice of the Sky’ - a cancelled concert planned for April 2020.  Underhill set passages of text from journal entries of Spanish modernist architect Antoni Gaudí (1852-1926), in which Gaudí describes some of his philosophies - a need for balance, contrast, and the inspiration he drew from nature. If you close your eyes, perhaps you can imagine the tree-like columns and shafts of colored light that fill his masterpiece, the still unfinished Sagrada Família in Barcelona.
