Programme Note

This short piece was originally written as a twenty-1st birthday present for clarinettist Esther Smaill. The melodic fragment heard at the outset soon skitters over its own unstable surface, mutates into fanfare-like repetitions, is spliced with momentary cantabile inserts, is interrupted by slow motion signposts, and blows itself out in a final burst of energy.

Difficulty:

Advanced

Dedication:

For Hamish McKeich
