Flurry

Duration: 02' 00" Year: 2002
for three string quartets

  • Programme Note

    This work was commissioned by the 2002 New Zealand International Festival of Arts as an “encore” for the three string quartets who had participated in a triple-bill concert. In a kind of energetic flurry, each quartet plays its own version of a simple 4-note motive. Three other motives also appear as “cultural tags”: Singapore being pentatonic, New Zealand as somewhat self-effacing, and Mexico reminiscent of the South American protest song “The People United Shall Never be Defeated”.

Invisible waves

Duration: 04' 25" Year: 2002
for solo flute

  • Programme Note

    Invisible Waves, inspired by the Orewa Beach in Auckland, imitates the evening sea waves, sound of the seagulls accompany the sunset. The melodic material derives from a set of four-note A, G#, F, and D. The ascending scale-like motif appears several times to imitate the flow of sea waves.

Lookin'

Duration: 03' 40" Year: 2002
for SATB with some vocalisations and finger clicks

  • Programme Note

    A cheeky little jazzy piece about how everyone is looking for someone to have fun with. Written for SATB ensemble with vocal sounds and finger clicks, it has a swing feel with some scat-like passages in triplets. It would suit choralography and added humorous actions.

Rosemary Russell  

Magnificat

Duration: 02' 30" Year: 2002
for SSAA choir

  • Programme Note

    A warm long lyrical melody begins in unison. Over the course of 3 verses the tune and accompanying figures are passed around. It finishes Maestoso. The soft refrain of Blessed o blessed indicates Mary relationship with her Lord. The rhythmic impulse varies throughout between 6/8 and 3/4. Whilst harmonically reasonably straight forward, the piece presents good tonal and blending challenges for a women’s ensemble. The piano part can be played as written or embellished. Useful as an anthem or contemporary art song. Ideal for The Big Sing.
