Product details

Strongly impressionistic in its character, Cloudforms follows in the tradition of pieces such as Nuages by Debussy and A Flock Descends into the Pentagonal Garden by Takemitsu in its essentially slow-moving, ethereal and hypnotic quality, as its title would suggest. Although the title might be an abstract noun (ie various forms of cloud) it also implies a more active process - clouds forming. The piece deals not with scientific type descriptions of meteorological events, but with musical clouds - ie accumulations of layers of orchestral texture and colour, floating in and out of the 'picture'.
