Music for vocalising pianist and percussion by Eve de Castro-Robinson, featuring pianist Dean Sky-Lucas, and photographic art work by Harvey Benge

RING TRUE
for piano, bell and tam-tam

i: a music as numerous as space (Emily Dickinson) (5:50)
ii: a wild dissolving bliss (Percy Bysshe Shelley) (4:10)
iii: a quietness distilled (Dickinson) (2:53)

"Ring true" was commissioned by NZ pianist Dan Poynton in 2003.

AND THE GARDEN WAS FULL OF VOICES
for vocalising pianist

i: the air sings of life (Barry Margan) (5:14)
ii: moon darkened by song (Bill Manhire) (3:05)
iii: the ancient chants are echoes of death (Margan) (4:52)

"and the garden was full of voices" was commissioned by Barry Margan
for the SOUNZTender project in 2010, and premiered by pianist Gao Ping.

The title is from a line of Bill Manhire’s: “I stayed a minute/and the garden was full of voices”.
