Programme Note
'Shadowplay' reflects my compositional style of the early 21st Century, before I became fully immersed in Irish traditional music. It mixes minimalist influences with jazz harmonies and poly-metric cycles.
It has a virtuoso flute part and I've had the pleasure of performing it on many occasions with the great flautist Aisling Agnew who performs it brilliantly.
Our recording is the title track of the album 'Shadowplay - New Music For Flute and Guitar'
