duo (2pno)12′Non-lieux Ties
Originally written to feature on a CD of works by a diverse range of Scottish composers from the baroque to the present day. Knowing that information before I started writing the piece was a blessing and a curse and I became unusually aware of lineage and heritage.
duo (vla, pno)12′30″Blind Corner
Most people have an emotional blind side. Some people have a literal blind side. Some people have both. When I wrote this tune I had all those types of people in mind.

jazz/improv (lead sheet)Barbican Complex, 2008
It's the Barbican Complex in London which gave impetus to this solo flute work. Rising from the ashes of a World War II bomb-site, there's an atmosphere about the 35-acre Barbican estate which is at once unsettling and tranquil.

That an old photograph can awaken such pathos, it catches me off-guard: a creased and evidently oft-handled photo of my great-uncle Ivor. An amateur pigeon fancier in his younger days, he stands grinning to the camera.solo guitar3′30″The Realness Concept
