A Cycle of Recollections

Duration: 13' 00" Year: 1997
for soprano, clarinet and piano

Judith Exley  

A Song of Marigolds

Duration: 10' 00" Year: 1990
for soprano and gamelan orchestra

  • Programme Note

    The poem is a reflection of the transient nature of love and life. The gamelan, being an intergral part of a traditional which sees life as cyclic, maybe offers a balance. I have endeavoured to express this polarity by using traditional materials in non-traditional ways.

Duration: 13' 00" Year: 1995
a cycle of five songs for high voice and guitar

Anthony Ritchie  

Children and Adults

Duration: 10' 00" Year: 1992
four songs for soprano, clarinet and piano

  • Programme Note

    Children and Adults was conceived as a song cycle, commissioned by Rosemary Stott for the Klarion Trio in 1992. The different ways that children and adults view the world has been a recurring source of fascination for the composer (who has reared three children of his own). This is encapsulated in these four settings, in which issues such as life, death, survival and creativity emerge as the main themes.

Nine Poems from "Meeting the Comet"

Duration: 13' 00" Year: 1999
song cycle for voice (countertenor) and guitar

  • Programme Note

    Nine poems selected from the set of twenty-four making up Fleur Adcock’s collection Meeting the Comet, a tale of a differently-abled young girl and her quest to follow Halley’s Comet via telescopes in the crater of Auckland’s Mt. Albert; along the way recollecting seeing glow worms as a child and detailing the growing pangs of her path to adulthood. The poetic text and musical accompaniment are closely linked, as I often used the former to realise the latter through a process of musical transliteration.
