Programme note

The Theme and Transfigurations is the final piece in my project of ‘transfigurations’ for the piano which have occupied me creatively for the majority of 2021-22. Whereas previous works have sought to transfigure folksongs, national anthems, popular songs and opera arias (amongst other things), this piece takes a short piece of my own from 2013 and transfigures different motifs, patterns, melodies and themes over five short movements.
