| Extra Information | The composer writes: Meditation for String Orchestra (1984) is my earliest acknowledged work. It marks my first successful use of the musical language which served me well in ensuing decades: the piece is tonally fluid yet centred, with extensive use of Romantic-era “colour chords” (while simple triads are conspicuously avoided), and with highly chromatic melodic elements. Throughout, the tempo is in a constant state of flux, with a sense of repose achieved only at the end of the piece. |
