Work Overview
A large-scale two movement work, Piano Concerto was commissioned by Australian-British pianist Rosemary Tuck and was composed in Sydney in 2021. The two movement shape is similar to my earlier Violin Concerto - with a slow first movement (Cantilena Ocean Sky: 'Expansive, tender and slow') and a fast moto perpetuo second movement (Canticle of the Birds: 'In constant flight - fast'). The work is dedicated 'In memoriam to Richard Meale' and draws on some of the sketches and ideas from his uncompleted Piano Concerto.
