Souvenir du Docteur Jamain - for piano - August 2023
Piano music inspired by Rosa Souvenir du Docteur Jamain, an old rose variety, first introduced in 1865. A perfect rose and one loved by Vita Sackville-West.
Understated, sparse piano music conveys the emotion in the idea of Svalbard.
A land of snow pierced by the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, with a Noah's Ark role, buried in a mountain covered by permafrost.
The images merge the idea of a seed with transformed versions of the extraordinary mountain top geometric telecommunications domes, near the town of Longyearbyen.
