This short blessing was written for my choir St Mary’s Schola at St Mary’s College. It was composed for use in a performance at mass in St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Auckland.

The text is based on traditional Irish blessing, with a version of the concluding blessing often used in many services added at the end.

Much of my work is a marriage (or balancing act) between the Western art music tradition and my own position in time and place. Along with many forms, I have had a love for sacred choral music from Mediaeval times through to the present, but in not being a Christian, I have felt a reluctance to set text in which I don’t fully believe.

In reading the work of spiritual author, Eckhart Tolle, I have discovered a new connection with biblical texts. Tolle quotes the line “Be still, and know that I am God” in his book A New Earth, as an example of a universal truth that is at the heart of all religions and belief systems. In this text “God” may be seen as the Christian God, an omnipresent spiritual dimension or the universe personified. This line, and the rest of the text, is from Psalm 46. In setting this text I have found an opening into the world of sacred choral music that aligns with my own beliefs.

This work was written especially for two great friends (and myself): clarinet virtuoso and winner of the 2009 NZSM Concerto Competition, Andrzej Nowicki, and the multi-talented Kylie Nesbit, whose unusual viola-bassoon combination particularly amuses me. The cycles-within-cycles and extreme performance requirements of the piece are directly inspired by Jack Body’s Epicycle string quartet; while the rhythms are inspired by traditional Chinese erhu.

This piece was written for an old friend of mine who was at that time resident in Japan, and wanted a tune for her flute and guitar duo. The ‘favour’ in question refers to said friend’s valiant attempts to find an urgently-required copy of a piece of sheet music, for me. After I sent her this piece, she RETURN-returned the favour by generously sending me a box of eclectic Japanese confectionery!

For some reason we never seem to fully escape our formative influences. In this case it is the Dave Brubeck Quartet’s 1959 Time Out album, featuring the smooth, lyrical alto saxophone sound of Paul Desmond, as well as time signatures not yet widely heard by the general public on a jazz recording.

Why Grooves Unspoken? Because we do not speak music, we play (or sing) it.
