In April 1981 Denise Hulford ‘discovered’ Sam Hunt’s poem DREAMS and was immediately impressed with the very descriptive words which became an inspiration for this setting of the poem for Mezzo-Soprano and Flute. As a composer and singer Denise Hulford has been fascinated by the voice and its potential for manipulation whilst being able to blend with other timbres.

James K. Baxter is New Zealand’s most well-known poet. He wrote in a wide variety of styles and genres, including the traditional ballad form, of which Lament for Barney Flanagan is a prime example. It contains a classic Baxter mix of humour and pathos, lively in spirit but focussed on the subject of death, in this case the heart-attack of an overweight publican. The music is simple and strong, allowing the witty lyrics to speak for themselves, but also adding occasional wry touches of word-painting.

This work for solo piano has been described as “a haunting gem for a modern baby.” (Blanks, Sydney Morning Herald)

“In a simple arch structure of eight bar phrases, it progresses in variations from naive simplicity to what could almost amount to a nightmare in the centre, then back to slumbering innocence once again.” (Bibby, Music in New Zealand)

The old traditional street cries of London have been a source of inspiration for composers from Renaissance times through to twentieth century examples such as the setting by Luciano Berio. They were the method by which street sellers made the passers-by aware of their produce. Each seller had his or her own special cry which advertised the wares and promoted their superior quality.

This short collection of cries was originally written in 1981 for a choral group directed by John Rosser. In those more enlightened days summer employment schemes were available to student groups, and a choir was deemed to be a suitable way of employing students for 3 months or so. The group, called ‘Summer Singers’ performed for old people’s homes, in shopping malls and, after January, in schools.

A revised version made in 1993 added a couple of small refrain-like sections, made some minor changes to the original work’s harmonies and extended considerably the central fugal section (“Black and white cherries…”). This score includes further revisions made in 2007 prior to a performance by John Rosser and his choir Viva Voce.

The text of the work begins with a warning to the passer-by: don’t stop and listen to the singers or else a pickpocket is liable to target you. This is followed by a variety of street calls for everything from herrings to old iron to parsnips and prunes. The work ends with the opening section repeated more or less exactly.
