Race Against Time
By John Peterson

Cello and piano, c.10'00This is in two large-scale parts reflecting two different perspectives of the title: the first half of the piece expresses a variety of mixed emotions brought about by a stressful ‘race against time’ – nervous anticipation, sudden angry outbursts, – while the second half of the piece tries to express the ‘emotional rush’ of a more exciting experience.

Radum, Scadum, Rubbido!
By Michael Atherton
Regular price
$10.00
Voices and piano.
A parody of the English cumulative song, ‘Green grow the rushes O', Australianised to celebrate and mimic our animals, and included the archetypal swagman and his jumbuck. Performances will benefit from a workshop approach, exploring the song’s theatrical possibilities. Performers are free to substitute different animals, and the song may be performed with any number of verses. The only proviso is that a performance should be fun, ocker, and given to a bit of cheesy pantomime.
Composed 1996 rev, 2014
