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.

Guardians of the North is a work for wind orchestra commissioned by the Opononi Summer School. It was written to celebrate the school but also to introduce and/or make more familiar New Zealand music to the participants. Because of this, it was written in an accessible yet challenging style in the hope to encourage interest in new music, and more specifically, New Zealand music, which lacks music for this timbre.

The summer school is set in the Hokianga, where New Zealand’s first Maori, and second European, settlements were established. Since then, no other place in New Zealand carries such rich and storied past. Maori legend has it that two taniwha, Arai-te-uru & Niwa, were situated at the entrance of the harbour to protect it from invading waka. Arai-te-uru was placed on the south head, and Niwa at the north head. They would stir the waters and lash out at the waka, ceasing their entry. These two taniwha were the … Guardians of the North.

This work was funded jointly by the Opononi Music School and Creative New Zealand.

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.

Sonatine – Dialogue between Wind and Snow was written in December of 2002. This piece was meant to be a sister piece of a much earlier miniature called Dawn (1994). But as it was finished and performed, I thought it stood on its own quite well. A tonal and more conventional style was used in order to fit the two pieces together.

This piece has a carefree, fresh, and uncomplicated character. The musical ideas are often presented in polyphonic textures to give a sense of dialogue. I had a good time writing it and it was finished quite quickly. The winter of 2002 was exceptionally snowy and windy in Cincinnati where I was residing at the time, and some of the ideas came to me while I was watching the snow through the window.

This work exists in 2 versions, one for flute and piano, and another for violin and piano. I have performed both versions with two exceptional performers: the Russian flutist Alexander Viazovtsev and violinist Yang Liu.
