About
This is the fourth in a series of song cycles written for Richard Phillips and had its performance in a private residence.
The 12 poems reflect personal childhood memories of the composer alternating with later second-hand impressions of events in the '80s including the Springbok tour, Queen Street riots, Rogernomics and Auckland's rampant redevelopment.
