D - Parts-Short Cuts was commissioned by the Apollo Saxophone Quartet in 2003/4 and was originally scored for two sopranos one tenor and one baritone. This new version however asks for a different scoring of three Bb Clarinets one bass Clarinet and one Percussionist (Vibraphone and Marimba). The work's main purpose is to play with two possible meanings for Short Cuts . That is both with the idea of sharp and cutting musical gestures and the idea of taking a different shorter path to reach a specific destination. But most of all it was written thinking of the wonderful sonority and the rare qualities of the ASQ to whom the work was dedicated.

Uhtceare for Flute Percussion Violin and Cello. Composed 2014 published 2016. Score included in UYMP's Firewheel Anthology (ISMN M-57036-615-6) recorded by Dark Inventions. Duration: 8'30. Uhtceare is an Old English word meaning ‘anxiety before dawn’ – surely a familiar experience to many not just the Anglo-Saxons. I particularly associate it with the half-awake early-morning asthma attacks that I had as a child. The piece starts in a nocturnal dreamlike state with chords that pulse gently like the rise and fall of breaths. These swelling patterns become increasingly fraught while soloists sporadically emerge with a sense of urgency and culminate in a loud chaoticpassage where the percussionist moves from tuned Percussion to Drums. Following this the Flute plays agile looping figures that are soon mimicked by the Violin and then the Vibraphone. These figures are frenetic but harmonically static so that when all three instruments are playing them simultaneously there is a whirlwind of activity that paradoxically seems to remain stationary. I thought this was a fitting musical analogue for the fruitless but insistent circling of anxious early-morning thoughts. A dramatic Cello solo interrupts these imitative cycles and leads the ensemble in a cacophonous final crescendo. Commissioned by Dark Inventions and first performed by them on 8th May 2014 at The Engine House Manchester. Uhtceare for Flute Percussion Violin and Cello. Composed 2014 published 2016.

Sadie Harrison 's A Not-So-Sonatine for Double Bass and Piano. Composed in 2013 and revised and published in 2016. Duration: 10 minutes. A Not-So-Sonatine is so called as it is rather more than a sonatine being uncharacteristically virtuosic for both Double Bass and Piano. This is a light-hearted piece which references the plethora of accessible mid-twentieth century sonatines with delight! The second movement is also known as Josie's Piece premiered by Josie Jobbins in 2014 at the Taunton Young Musician of the Year Final. A Not-So-Sonatine is dedicated to the virtuoso bassist David Heyes. The work is in four movements: Molto moto! Moltocantabile Molto scherzando Molto brillante! A Not-So-Sonatine was premiered at the Auditorio de Almuñecar (Granada Spain) on 30th November 2015 by bassist Frano Kakarigi and pianist Juan José Muñoz Cañivano.
