- G Schirmer Inc (World)
Commissioned by the Bath International Music Festival with funds provided by the Arts Council England
Programme Note
Composer Note:
The Blotting was commissioned by the Bath International Music Festival with funds provided by the Arts Council England, and was given its first performance by the Tate Ensemble at the Hotbath Gallery in Bath, England, on June 5, 2004. It is quite rhythmically virtuosic in places, making use of manically interlocking hockets. The percussive quality of some of these sections is given extra raspy umph by the preparation of the violin with a paper-clip.
