Portrait Gallery, London
Inspired by the
beautiful phenomenon of a flowing river with a
frozen ‘crust’, this piece is a short delicate
meditation. The sinuous lines of the oboe are
blurred with hazy vibraphone drones and crystalline
Morse code from the crotales. Commissioned by new
noise and originally scored for oboe and percussion,
there is an arrangement for violin, accordion and
double bass, and also an arrangement for 2 Flutes,
Clarinet, Violin and Cello
