Woman's Song I, c.3'20 - expresses changing moods and emotions, qualities sometimes associated with femininity.
Woman's Song II, c.2'00 - expresses energy and exhilaration together with tenderness and joy, the joy we may know in a celebration of life.
As with both pieces, the tonality is based on the Balinese pelog scale and this, together with rhythms that might be used by the gamelan, reflects something of the colour and dynamic contrast often to be heard in Balinese gamelan performance.
Composed 1998
