Programme Note

El Nino was written through a request from Judith Clark for a small piece that might be suitable for her piano students at the School of Music, University of Canterbury in 1998. The piece was written during the summer of 1997/98 when El Nino battered Canterbury with fierce Nor’west winds. While the main impetus of the work centres around a musical argument, there is also a loose correlation between the variety and culmination of musical activity, and the variety and culmination of wind intensities in the El Nino weather patterns.
