For SATB & String Quartet, commissioned by Phillip Parr for the Swaledale Festival, 10th June 2006 for the Pro Nobis Singers & Navarra String Quartet. This short work reflects some of the intense musical experiences that have marked me by his music. It is suffused by a slow, halting waltz, and references to the sound of the composer's name. It lasts about five minutes before drifting up into silence. Ca. 5  minutes.
