Programme Note

This work was written especially for two great friends (and myself): clarinet virtuoso and winner of the 2009 NZSM Concerto Competition, Andrzej Nowicki, and the multi-talented Kylie Nesbit, whose unusual viola-bassoon combination particularly amuses me. The cycles-within-cycles and extreme performance requirements of the piece are directly inspired by Jack Body’s Epicycle string quartet; while the rhythms are inspired by traditional Chinese erhu.
