about

I created this piece in 2002 and it reflects some of my compositional preoccupations of that time, namely a tunefulness (in the most traditional sense) and a desire to create work that was, mostly, fast-moving and charged with energy. The extremely focused thematic approach dictated that all the important motivic materials stem from just three sources within the piece. The piece explores some of the textural possibilities available when the guitar and soprano sax are combined and these varied sound worlds are juxtaposed in an episodic, but continuous formal structure.

Greg Caffrey is a composer based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and is the Artistic Director of Hard Rain SoloistEnsemble. His music has been performed worldwide by numerous performers and ensembles including The Ulster Orchestra, Ensemble Bash, Craig Ogden, and many others. He is represented by the Contemporary Music Centre, Dublin, and is a member of the Association of Irish Composers. His music is published by the Australian publisher Reed Music.
