Programme Note
Dedicated to Marty Walker.
Attacks should be soft, but dynamics should be full throughout.
Everything should be connected with a continuous sense of line running from beginning to end.
The ideal balance is one in which all sounds in the air at any moment are equally audible.

Reviews
“… rumbling, rolling blocks of sound-textures that shimmer like a Terry Riley drone while moving with a Feldman-esque slow majesty.”
“… developing a slowly unfolding melodic line with tremendous resourcefulness.”
“… warm dronic music that shimmers in sensuality.”
