I welcomed this commission to write a small piece for Stephen De Pledge, but baulked a little at the idea it that should be related to landscape, a concept that can easily fall into cliché. But then all physical places are in fact landscape, including the street where I have lived for the last 35 years (echoes of My Fair Lady), in the city I love.

This work creates a counterpoint between my own voice and its ‘musical analogue’, as played on the piano.

Landscape Prelude is imbued with the spirit of New Zealand’s west coast on a still day. The accompanying poem begins:

“barely stirs the dark ripple

through liquid bell-tones

ancient echoes

of grey-green tree-gods

high sky

wild crags and rocks

the deep earth gong beats…”


A less than reassuring human element also enters the picture…

Commissioned for Euphony, a girls choir from Kristin School, for their 2010 repertoire. As soon as I found this text I knew that’s what the piece would be about.

Bub Bridger – Wild Daisies

If you love me
Bring me flowers
Wild daisies
Clutched in your fist
Like a torch
No orchids or roses
Or carnations
No florist’s bow
Just daisies
Steal them
Risk your life for them
Up the sharp hills
In the teeth of the wind
If you love me
Bring me daisies
That I will cram
In a bright vase
And marvel at
