Water:
dreamy beginning with murmuring strings, bowed vibraphone and woodwinds that ebb and flow. The horns make a statement – echoed in the oboe and flutes which lead to an aquatic world where water is heard trickling and plopping whilst the didgeridoo weaves the underworld waterscape. Strings, muted [bad word] and woodwinds shimmer in the gloom and the cellos take a poignant place towards the end, leaving the music unresolved.
