Programme Note
Spiral features on the album 'Liberty', performed by Kerenza Peacock, Huw Watkins and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, led by conductor Paul Bateman.
Spiral is written for solo violin, piano and strings. The opening movement is scored so that the solo violin is often part of the string section, but then emerges in certain sections to reveal itself as a solo instrument. The name of the work comes from the image evoked by the solo violin and piano lines in the second movement. The third movement provides a welcome sense of calm after the energy of the first two movements and the final movement often exploits the violin's ability to play in a folky, virtuosic style.
