Description:
The title of these five musical timepieces refers to the 18th century clockmaker John Harrison whose struggle to develop the first reliable navigational chronometer is related in Dava Sobel's book Longitude. The work continues the composer's preoccupation with time and the idea of musical mechanisms.
