- Program Notes
- 'Half-Synthetic Waltz' was conceived as a dance between two characters, with one half of this strange pair a natural figure, represented by the acoustic flute, the other a synthetic construction, realised by the pitch shifting electronics that respond to the flute’s melody. The descriptor of ‘waltz’ is used, not to indicate the piece’s metre, but to illustrate the shape of the movements of the pair – dancing in tandem as if each was an extension of the other.
