About

A playful set of three contrasting pieces using a wide range of timbral effects and combinations, featuring a unique percussion set-up. Grabbing the attention with quirky dance-grooves and suspense-filled pauses whilst drawing the listener in with delicate sonorities, the work provides a satisfying balance for the listener experience. Featured as a ?Future Classic? on BBC Radio Scotland.
