“… Time is something that passes at the same rate for all of us, (although it doesn’t always seem that way!). We are all slaves to the passing of time, yet we are individually perfectly free to do as much (or as little) as we see fit, within its confines. The six pieces have Latin (and English) titles to enhance a spirit of being ‘lost in time’…”
Composed in 2018 and originally published by EVC Publications. About Time has now been released under the Clifton Edition imprint.
While each piece in this suite is distinct in character, all share a mutual interest in contrasting “time and rhythm”. The harmonies, while often employing unashamedly ‘diatonic’ (tuneful) language, also make effective use of chords based on the intervals of the second and fourth, for example in ‘Perpetuum Mobile’, while ‘Momento Temporis’ takes time out to enjoy modal tranquillity and sonorous pedalling. Momentum is influenced by lively Hungarian folk rhythms and jazz, while the last movement — a dark evocation of eternity — consists entirely of just one particularly ‘timeless’ chord, deployed in a serial (mathematical) series and making use of rhythmical ‘diminution’ and ‘augmentation’.
