Liebeslied for viola solo - Katie Yap, baroque viola

​

This piece was written in October 2015 and was premiered by Katie Yap in Melbourne in June 2019.

​

Liebeslied is a miniature for solo viola in homage to Kreisler’s salon pieces for violin and piano. In them Kreisler paints a whimsical, romantic and sentimental notion of love, so in tribute to that Liebeslied is like an ugly cousin to those works, trying to capture the all the things he left out about love because of course it’s not as simple as he portrays.

If they knew for small orchestra - Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, cond. Matthew Coorey

​

Performed and recorded live in January 2020, and made possible by the Cybec Foundation as supporters of the Cybec 21st Century Australian Composers Program.

​

This is a piece in two parts - if they knew and a place to keep you - about the reasons to keep secrets; fear and sacrifice.

Performed and recorded live by the Flinders Quartet in February 2019

​

This work is broadly a life cycle in 4 parts that begins with the idea of something coming out of hibernation, and eventually fading into still life photographs. 

This excerpt is taken from the beginning of the second part, "a nocturne for creepy crawlies".

Performed and recorded live by the Flinders Quartet in December 2017 at the Docklands Library
