The Mystery of the Cave

The Mystery of the Cave


As I suffer from claustrophobia due to an incident as a child, confined spaces are not for me. However, the thought of hearing beautiful recorder music in a cave won't stop me from writing a piece that is to be played in a confined space.

This five-movement work is composed with the thought of using the ambience of the cave as a large part of the sound of the piece.

The recorders needed to perform this suite are Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass and Great Bass.

I am looking for a quartet that wants to perform this piece, if you are interested please contact me here.

I am talking to the people at Carey's Cave as the performance venue, it's near Wee Jasper in N.S.W. But, it could be performed in any cave.
