Product details

Still Time was composed in 1997/98 for Jade Grice and first performed in December 1998 by Jade, conducted by the composer.

The title is drawn from Philip Larkin's poem "The Mower", which concludes:
".... we should be careful
Of each other, we should be kind
While there is still time"


The second movement is subtitled 'Symphony' and the third movement 'Concerto no. 2', although both titles could apply to the whole work. The work contains as the third movement a re-orchestrated version of my (very short) Concerto no. 1 for tenor saxophone, winds and percussion, and as a whole the work is structured with the large scale intentions of a symphony (if an unusual one).
