E - 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 and one bass Clarinet. 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.

Even more than Schoenberg’s or Webern’s Berg’s music made an enormous impact on me during the late 1950s and early 1960s when studying with Alexander Goehr. Work on this little piece was commenced on the 25th anniversary of Berg’s death and to commemorate the first performance of his Piano Sonata in April 1911 it was first performed in April 1961 by the pianist and composer Madeleine Coates Russell at a our own ‘society for private performances’ in London. Its shape is simple - a stage-by-stage progression from slow and gentle to a dense climax at double speed then a return to the spirit if not the material of the opening. Its public première the first of any of mycompositions was given by Susan Bradshaw at a Macnaghten Concert in November 1961. It was awarded Morley College’s Fricker Composition Prize. - Anthony Gilbert Recorded on Prima Facie PFCD007 'Piano Music' by Richard Casey/Ian Buckle.
