For String Orchestra , c.4'30

No 4 in the collection of Five Australian Scenes for String Orchestra

Snowy Mountains is set in the alpine region of Thredbo in the state of NSW, which is a popular ski resort. The scene opens with the majesty and austerity of the alpine mountains. Then, the cold sets the teeth chattering and the feet stamping with a paraphrase from Vivaldi's Winter from The Four Seasons, but which transforms into the iconic Australian song, Waltzing Matilda. From there, fun is had in the snow followed by the ride up the ski lift to the top of the ski fields. Then, of course, there is the exhilarating ski journey down the mountain! After more fun in the snow, the day ends with everybody returning to the chalet.

Composed 2024.
