Trio for flute, viola and harp c.20'00
"At the top end, in the markets, but past the crowds, the sun slowly sinks to the ocean horizon. Distant ripples, currents, soft and subtle layers of colour, ever changing, and fluid. Hints of the distant exotic lands beyond... the Arafura Sea; another day, as the light fades...
Arafura Haze is a substantial work with no discrete movements as such, that is, no breaks. Even though the varied sections have their own discrete character and title, they flow organically, as it were, into the next. In some senses almost symphonic, it includes elements of Papuan New Guinean funerary culture, fragile dreamy impressionistic colours and contrapuntal song-lines, but it also shifts gear at times, as it powers along in two driving, Balkan-based Allegro movements.
