| Programme Note | During a long chat with composer Adele Wilding, I realised that all of the music I ever write for the Red Note and similar ensembles has an edge of hard-bitten cynicism, not helped by the fact that it has to be quite loud to come through the air conditioning and the clink of glasses in the venues they use. Thanks to her insights and in response to the call for scores for the next Red Note concert, I wrote Unashamedly Emotional, an unashamedly emotional, soft-edged, uncynical piece. If you're a hard-bitten cynic, it probably won't give you goose-bumps; but if it does then I'll be very pleased. |
