400 Roncesvalles Avenue is the address of the Revue Cinema, a historic movie-house in a historic area of Toronto, Canada. The way to approach the theatre from downtown is to take the subway eastbound to Dundas West station and from there to take a streetcar to the theatre. These are depicted at the beginning, in the middle and at the end of the piece. The third and fourth section of this work also quote fairly extensively from the Adagio movement of Bruckner’s 8th symphony. The reason for this is that it was while I was resident in Toronto that I became familiar with and recognised the genius of this composer. I regret to say that I have no recollections of ever seeing any interesting films at the Revue Cinema. It is dedicated to Salvatore Martirano, who expressed a liking for the piece.

Acquerello (watercolour) revolves around two quiet and contrasting ideas – one slow, one fast. The principal idea is a slow and highly ornamented descending line. Sometimes the line is stripped of all ornamentation and moves instead in chords. Three times this is interrupted with a short, fast refrain.

Acquerello was wriiten in 1998

For a composer, the piano is so often merely a means to an end – the blank sheet on which we write. Focusing on melody seemed an apt way for me to rediscover the piano’s own voice. I owe a debt of inspiration to many pianists and composers, among them Aretha Franklin, Glenn Gould, Sergio Mendes, Theolonius Monk, Nina Simone and Cecil Taylor.

El Nino was written through a request from Judith Clark for a small piece that might be suitable for her piano students at the School of Music, University of Canterbury in 1998. The piece was written during the summer of 1997/98 when El Nino battered Canterbury with fierce Nor’west winds. While the main impetus of the work centres around a musical argument, there is also a loose correlation between the variety and culmination of musical activity, and the variety and culmination of wind intensities in the El Nino weather patterns.
