Sein Schreiben zeichnete sich durch scharfen Einblick in die Zukunft und die menschliche Natur aus, oft mit einer Note von Ironie und Kritik. Wilson befasste sich mit komplexen Themen und ging über typische Genre-Konventionen hinaus, um Erzählungen zu schaffen, die sowohl zum Nachdenken anregten als auch literarisch anspruchsvoll waren.

(Peermusic Classical). I composed Charades in 2014 for my colleague and friend of so many years, the brilliant pianist Todd Crow. In a Vassar College musicdepartment party over forty years ago Mr. Crow distinguished himself in a game of charades: thus the title. The four movements are Arabesque, Cantilena, Roulades, and Toccata. Todd Crow gave the premiere at Skinner Hall, Vassar College, on December 10, 2016. -Richard Wilson
(Peermusic Classical). I attended a birthday party for my friend, the writer Gail Godwin, at the home of another friend, Frances Halsband. Frances played for me the birdsong of a Wilson's Warbler, a new species to me. Attracted by this sound I proceeded to compose a set of pieces called Mimesis, the individual movements of which are related to creatures of nature. The first movement, Warblemusic, is written for Frances Halsband, remembering Robert Kliment; Owls is for Gail Godwin, remembering Robert Starer; Snail and Parakeet, remembering Richard W. Zingler (my grandfather, who had a parakeet); and Frog Chorus, remembering John Thompson's First Grad Book out of which I studied at age seven, its Frog's Chorus being my favorite selection. -Richard Wilson
