Farewell attempts to integrate a number of diverse musical influences ranging from traditional Maori through nineteenth century European to modern American jazz and South American tango. The body of the piece is melodic and harmonious, but is framed by abstract episodes. To achieve these abstract sounds, the Cello plays microtones and a few varieties of distortion effects, some sounding as birds. The piano is ‘prepared’ by inserting a small piece of foam rubber under the lowest octave of strings and also by having the player strum directly on the strings with either a piece of felt or a rubber piano tuner’s mute. As the title suggests, Farewell includes elements of nostalgia, mystery, and pathos. The feelings one may have on saying good-bye to the present and viewing the future with a bit of apprehension. A time for re-evaluation.

Meditation was commissioned by Tessa Petersen and John Van Buskirk for performance in a concert celebrating the opening of the Chinese Gardens in Dunedin, New Zealand, 2008. The piece takes an ancient Chinese poem as its point of departure, a text that focuses on Nature and its relationship to humans. The music spontaneously expresses thoughts of Nature and beauty, using simple ideas based around modes, repeated ostinati, and a mixture of long melodic lines and shorter motifs. Various timbres on both instruments are explored, and the pianist plays on the strings of the instrument with mallets at the beginning and end of the piece. The piece is structured in 3 main sections: slow-faster-slow, and all sections are played without a break.

Sinew/Synapse is concerned with ideas of connection: the causal links between brain and body, score and sound, performance gesture and sonic result. The musical materials existed first as independent objects, which were then manipulated to draw out links between them. I was particularly interested in areas in which the acoustical systems of the instrument become unstable, where a precisely specified physical gesture will produce an unpredictable sonic result. Many of the sounds hover around the threshold of audibility, and the performer is constantly involved in a delicate balancing act. Sinew/Synapse is dedicated to the cellist Robert Ibell, whose role in the music’s evolution was invaluable.

Composed for solo violin and performed as part of the Michael Hill International Violin Competition, “The Dance of the Sibyl” was inspired by several paintings entitled “The Lane of the Sibyl” by the English born painter Elizabeth Haines which illustrate the dark lanes of overhanging trees and foliage with chinks of light in South West Wales where she lives.

The string quartet is inspired by a poem by Mervyn Peake:

’Is there no Love can Link us?’

Is there no thread to bind us- I and he

Who is dying now, this instant as I write

And may be cold before this line’s complete?

And is there no power to link us- I and she

Across whose body the loud roof is falling?

Or the child, whose blackening skin

Blossoms with hideous roses in the smoke?

Is there no love can link us- I and they?

Only this hectic moment? This fierce instant

Striking now

Its universal, its uneven blow?

There is no other link. Only this sliding

Second we share: this desperate edge of now.
