Revisited, Repurposed (2024)

Revisited, Repurposed is a short work composed for organ that takes the material from an earlier piece of mine. A few years ago, I was looking back through some older works as an opportunity to review and observe some the elements that have changed and remained in my own composition practice, I was struck by the simplicity and versatility of the material and how that could potential be translated onto other instruments.

I first came across Huw Morgan’s Mainly Slow Organ Music series in 2022 whilst scrolling through social media, being first draw to the lithograph-like drawing of the colourful tortoise and then the repertoire that he was performing. A while passed and after thinking about the material from my earlier piece, my mind put two and two together.
