About

The composer writes - In “Chases, Cattle Calls and Charts” three spheres of sound come together: contemporary music, folk music, and animal sounds – first and foremost birdsong. The composing process has been thought-provoking; the folk music I have used was created in an environment where there was no emphasis on notation or verbal theory. The music simply existed in aural perception and physical gestures, without the eye having to focus upon a written score, and it came into being at a time when people communicated with animals, and at a time when both animals and humans depended on each other for survival.
