Product details

This work uses field recordings from Wiilman Noongar and Palawa Country. The source material for the pitched materials in the piece is a handful of chords from Peter Sculthorpe's "Snow, Moon and Flowers" from the Night Pieces. Field recordings are filtered to pitches extrapolated from these chords, in combination with the instruments and microtonal sine waves. The piece plays poetically with concepts of translocation of place and the notion of multiple times existing simultaneously, inspired by the vision of Noongar Country in the last ice age after seeing snowcapped banksia trees on kunanyi/Mount Wellington.

Published by: Australian Music Centre — 1 facsimile score (12p. -- A4 (landscape))

Difficulty: Advanced — Not difficult instrumentally, but explores potentially difficult concepts of ensemble coordination including indeterminacy, and live electronics.
