Shadow Play

Clarinet/bass clarinet, harp, viola, ‘cello (2011)

Listen to an excerpt:


Written for Chroma, the generally dark, grotesque and sometimes farcical character of this piece was partly inspired by the old parlour game of casting silhouettes using a large sheet and a candle.

Shadow Play was first performed in the David Josefovitz Recital Hall at the Royal Academy of Music in November 2011, by members of Chroma.
