  • Programme Note

    Toru means ‘three’ in Maori, here referring to the trio of players.
    The written score of Toru lays out the structure, dramatic shape and instrumentation of the music, but the musical details is left to the creativity of the performers, so the musical voyage complete each time Toru is performed will be unique. An aim in Toru has been to draw the cello and clarinet into the sound world of the taonga puoro in the course of the performance.

    Notes taken from Toru, Atoll CD (ACD 143)
