  • Waiteata Collection of New Zealand Music Vol. 4 - Composer Portrait: Ross Harris
CD

This album, the fourth in the Composer Portrait series from Waiteata Music Press, looks at music by Ross Harris. As a composer, he is described as “something of a chameleon, altering the surface of his musical language to suit the occasion.” This selection of solo and chamber music written over the last twenty years ranges from works in the New Zealand tradition to those more European in character, language and construction.
