Work Overview
A solemn and lyrical work for choir and orchestra written for the 2021 Vietnam War commemoration project sponsored by the Australian War Memorial, Canberra. This work divides the strings and uses the blended sonorities of voices, horns, harp and trumpet to achieve a warm and luminous sound world. Dominion recalls the battle at Long Tan with a text adapted from the first stanza of Dylan Thomas, 'And death shall have no dominion.'
