For Viola and Cello. Published 2008. Dedicated to Garth Knox and Rohan de Saram First performance: Intrasonus Festival Venice 3 May 2008 This music was composed during my DAAD residency in Berlin in October — November 2007. If I were to describe it in one sentence I would say that it is based on the idea of 'two things seen/heard as one'. a2 (a due) is a well-known term to musicians; it is often found in orchestral scores indicating a given passage that is to be played by two instruments of the same family. Although violin and cello could well be regarded as 'first cousins' of the string family the literal implementation of the term a2 as a 'compositional strategy' would have been too much (!) for a piece of chamber music consisting of no more than two players. Not surprisingly this never happens in this work; in fact the opposite is true: regardless of how it appears on paper (i.e. on one or two staves) the music for each instrument is constantly based on two layers. This musical 'interpretation' of the title gives an indication as to how the textural format of the piece operates. However this was by no means the only thought that 'preoccupied' my mind whilst composing this music. Berlin made a profound impression on me. The remnants of the wall in Bernauer Straße and the cobbled two-stone line tracing the wall across where it once stood — a clear reminder of what not so long ago there were two different worlds in one city — provoked a strikingly dramatic effect. Border death-strip killing and escape to freedom had a particularly evocative resonance especially of the time when I lived for three years in a remote town in Southern Albania right at the border with Greece. There there was a nameless road whose destination the authorities did not want you to know but the locals called it the 'death-road'. In no way programmatic in this context the extra-musical dimension of the principal idea is very much part of the piece. Here the musical and extra-musical interpretations cannot easily be separated for they are two parts of the same thing: a2. As if to add another dimension to this idea there are two versions of this piece: for viola & cello and violin & cello. The first version was premiéred by Garth Knox and Rohan de Saram at the 2008 Intrasonus Festival in Venice.For Viola and Cello. Published 2008.

Cantus Mysticus was commissioned by The Foundation for the Cuenca Religious Music Week. First performance on 22nd March 2005 as part of the XLIV Cuenca Religious Music Week by Joan Enric Lluna (clarinet) Patricia Rozario(soprano) and the Madrid Community Orchestra conducted by the composer. The composer writes: Cantus Mysticus sets a text by Goethe concerned with the Eternal Feminine: Das ewig Weibliche sichuns hinan (TheEternal Woman draws us upwards). Many of my recent works have been concerned with meditation on the Creative Feminine which according to esoteric metaphysics reveals the 'child of the soul' and thus God. The slow contemplativeand very intense opening of Cantus Mysticus leads gradually towards a 'still centre' with much use of 'silence'. This is followed by an ecstatic celebration of the Divine Feminine –the Virgine Madre of Dante and Christianity theMaha Maya of Hinduism and Maha Prajavati of Buddhism. The Jazz-style passages for clarinet express Lîla or Divine Play. Cantus Mysticus is scored for B flat clarinet soprano and strings (violins and cellos only).

Propelled throughout by a constant driving pulse Michael Oares exciting work pits opposing elements of harmony and rhythm against each other portraying a sense of musical equilibrium. Creative interplay between winds and percussion along withshifting meters and changing textures adds to the effectiveness of this unique piece commissioned by the U.S Navy Band for their performance at the 2014 Midwest Clinic in Chicago Illinois.

From his experience as a conductor and adjudicator Bert Appermont knows that bands often experience the same problems: lack of sound control intonation difficulties uncontrolled articulation and insufficient phrasing. Practising these aspects is very demanding and there is little material available that is also enjoyable to play. Four Original Warm-Ups consists of four fun warm-up pieces. Each piece focuses on one of the problems without the music being dull. The four pieces work equally well when played together or as individual items either at rehearsals or in a concert.
