Jeanell Carrigan (piano)“Faintly shrouded by a gentle mist
The trees within the wood resemble dreams.” (Franz Holford)
In the early 1900s in Australia almost every home contained a piano. A sturdy upright with a metal frame taking pride of place in the parlour and providing hours of entertainment in the form of sing-alongs and musical evenings. Consequently, many songs and a great deal of piano music was composed which could be performed in the home environment, but also many works designed for the concert platform.
On this themed recording there are examples of piano music written by composers who were all born in the nineteenth or very early twentieth century, who lived throughout that century writing music describing their impressions of the world around them. There are works about forests, leafy lanes, mists, and joyful rain. There is a cacophony of bird sounds and just as trees can resemble dreams this music creates dreams and visions.

Flute and piano, c4'35. Grade: Advanced (8th)
This work for flute and piano has never been published and on the manuscript, there was no composition date. It belongs to the atmospheric style of works depicting the sounds heard in a forest favoured by Phillips in many of her songs. The work is in ternary form and characterised by an interplay of melodies between the two instruments.

Fortescue
By Linda Dalgliesh
Regular price
$25.00
For flute quartet, c.5'15
Piccolo, two flutes in C and alto flute
The Fortescue River passes through hard desert country; gravel beds and sandbanks shaped by wind and water, isolated deep pools, flat open sections of intertwining river courseways that become sticky with red clay after rain, trees thinly dispersed, or clustered in sheltered pockets around the bases of rocky outcrops. A quartet of Flutes present the rugged spectacle of this ancient landscape in a series of vignettes, some playful, and others sombre.
