Loosening

This piece lasts about 25 minutes and is in one movement. It focuses on sustained sounds, often using glissandi, which come in and out of focus. There is smudging involved and occasional moments of clarity perhaps. In a world which I think applauds certainty and simple answers, I sort of think it’s got a frailty to it, a tendency to feel unsure, to try with trepidation whilst remembering past fallibility. Or perhaps that’s just the way I feel generally.
