It is for amplified clarinet (with Ibanez Digital Delay DM1100), percussionist and drum machine (Roland TR606). It is for two human performers and a machine.
After extensive use of realtime signal processing during live performances with Ivan Zagni, Peter Scholes composed this piece for a series of concerts and a Radio New Zealand recording with percussionist Bruce McKinnon. The music contrasts the human performers with the mechanical precision of the drum machine. Sometimes the clarinet or the drum machine are processed through a delay device, the settings of which are varied throughout the piece to create different delay times and feedback effects.

The use of real time signal processing was also used by the composer in his composition “Islands II” which represented New Zealand in the 1993 UNESCO International Rostrum of Composers.
Later, Peter Scholes composed “Bonk” for Bruce McKinnon and the NZSO.

Written at Waikanae beach, ‘Variation’ was inspired by the natural environment. Rapidly evolving, elaborate patterns are a feature of the work. Chromatic textures reflect wind and surf, swirling, then pause for breath before hurtling off again, intentionally avoiding metered structures. Harris has always viewed the work as a ‘New Zealand piece’, although commentators from the period labelled it as belonging to the European art music tradition. The artist’s response: “I was thinking about New Zealand things. Sea, wind”. David Guerin gave the first performance of ‘Variation’ in 1982, but the technical challenges of the work have meant that it has seen few performances since.

A long time fascination with the movement and sound of water provided the stimulus for a work in which I concentrated on the idea of simulating the interplay of different rates of movement in various sound textures. These range from the gentle movement in a pool to the turbulence of a swift flowing river.

With the Current was commissioned by the Australian new music ensemble Flederman with funding from the Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council of New Zealand and the New Zealand Composers Foundation. The work was first performed by this ensemble at the University of Adelaide on 6 May 1986.

This work was recorded by the Karlheinz Company in March 1989.
