This work was inspired by seeing interviews with returned servicemen on the television programme New Zealand at War. The emotional power of their recollections of long hidden experiences led me to look for ways to express my feelings about the horrors of war. The setting attempts to make a stark contrast between the imagery of the poetry and the music.
(Ross Harris 1996)

A cycle of three Advent anthems with a text by S.E. Murray for ‘a cappella’ SATB choir. No. 2 contains solos for high soprano and bass. Commissioned by Prof. Peter Godfrey and the Kapiti Chorale in 1995, the work was first performed by Southern Consort of Voices in May 1996. By turns tender, meditative, and exhilarating with fresh, piquant harmonies.

This mystical poem by the Persian 13th Century poet, Rumi, makes links between music, love and people’s ability to reflect spiritual principles. The setting requires a very competent choir with awareness of mood changes between the statements ‘we are the flute’. The placement of the small number of sopranos at a distance will enhance the ethereal effects.

The Rose Family was commissioned by Viva Voce of Auckland and composed in 1995. The theme of roses and some of the texts were chosen by Viva Voce’s conductor, John Rosser.

The eight songs deal in a fairly light way with a variety of aspects of that most romantic of flowers, from love and happiness through to suffering, pain and death. Edmund Waller’s Go, lovely rose is a characteristic idealisation of a young woman and is romantic in style. In Herrick’s To the Rose, the rose is used to entrap a lover and force her to submit, and the music reflects this cruelty. Dorothy Parker suggests roses are all very well but she would have preferred a new car from her lover. The final song is an arrangement of James Oppenheim’s suffragette song Bread and Roses, and recalls the the sweated labour of women from the past.
