From Whale to canary

Solo Flute

Programme Note

From Whale to Canary is a love song of sorts; a love song to the human condition. It meanders around feelings of longing and lust, whilst always trying to stay reserved and demure.

From Whale to Canary was premiered by Jenni Hogan, to whom the piece is dedicated, on 30/6/2016 at St Mark Church, Dalston, London, as part of the Music on the Rise series.
