Description:
Commissioned for the Derbyshire Literature Festival in 2004, Arbor Low began its life as a collaboration between composer Joe Duddell and poet/artist Diana Syder. Throughout the 10 minute piece in three movements Duddell creates an overall reflection of each verse of Syder's text taken from her own work of the same name about the limestone circle and henge monument in Derbyshire. The effect is of a single large arch structure spanning from the first to the last bar.Performers have the option of having Syder's texts read aloud between each movement.
