Tasman Ice

Duration: 04' 00" Year: 1976
fantasia for solo flute (No. 2)

  • Programme Note

    This work was recorded in the mid 1970s and used on the sound track of a film for the then Department of Lands and Survey/Conservation about the Tasman Glacier. The film was made by Tony Lilleby, a Park Board ranger at Mt Cook in the mid 1970s and was used at various National Park Headquarters as part of audio-visual presentations for visitors. ‘Tasman Ice’ has been performed over the years by various flutists including Uwe Grodd, Alexa Still, Nicola Harris and students at Auckland University. I also performed it at a concert in Japan. As it was published in ‘Little Dancings’ it has had more performances than I know about which is great.

    Gu Cheng, the exiled Chinese poet whose poetry and person form the basis of 3 Poems, lived on a small island in Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf. The video images are of Gu Cheng and his poet wife Xie Ye on Waiheke Island, animations of Gu Cheng’s disturbingly whimsical drawings and the poem’s Chinese text. The tape uses diverse sounds and music – cooking oil, a Russian folksong sung in Chinese by the couple and – potatoes!
