West Wind
By Ann Carr-boyd
Regular price
$25.00
The mood of the work is a musical interpretation of the westerly winds which prevail in inland NSW. Their persistence is echoed by the presence of the 4 note figure which opens the work. This figure, in turn, gives way to an ebb and flow of tempi and themes (like the wayward wind).
Composed 1994
Recorded by John Martin on Another Look at Autumn (Wirr 102) available online

Solo violin, c.4'55. Grade 8+
After the poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins
The Windhover is a musical meditation on the famous poem by Hopkins. The composer endeavoures to convey the poet’s concept of ‘sprung rhythm’, which is designed to simulate the natural rhythmic contours of speech. In this piece, the stresses in the melodic line align to the four stressed syllables or ‘feet’ in Hopkins’ original.

Violin and piano, c.5'00. Advanced grade (8th)
The title refers to a “Jewish hymn which in various rituals shares with Adon 'Olam the place of honour at the opening of the morning and the close of the evening service.” The words sung during the prayer can be translated as “may He be magnified.” Phillips wrote this work for violin and piano using the material associated with this hymn in a one movement work.
