Description:
Two rhapsodic and improvisatory pieces composed in 1997 for harpist Elizabeth Jane Baldry and revised for publication in 2018.
The second makes use of two three-note motifs representing the initials of dedicatee and composer. Using an extended musical alphabet in which J equals the note C and R is the note D, EJB becomes ECB, the defining notes of a C major seventh chord, and PRL its near mirror image, BDE.
'Duration 8½ minutes'
Also available in a version for Flute (or Violin), Viola and Harp (GM255)
