  • Commissioned by David Jolley
  • Composer's note to the score:
Songs and Arias, for French horn, violin and cello, is my most recent [instrumental] work based on vocal forms. Lieder for Viola and Piano was written in 1979, Toccatas and Arias for Harpsichord in 1986, Toccatas and Arias for Piano in 1987, Madrigali Spirituali, for trumpet and string quartet, in 1989. There is a wide range of moods in Songs and Arias: the elegiac mood of the Arioso, the intensity of Canto Hondo, the parodies Rupert’s Aria (from the non-existent opera “Unfulfilled”) and the Aria from the equally non-existent Cantata.
