The Lake and the Hinterland
Stay close now as winter’s
White fuse burns across
The lake and the hinterland

(excerpt from Late Autumn Lullaby by Ross Baglin)

A hinterland is a district behind a coast, or river’s banks with the suggestion of sparse population. The full text to Baglin’s poem is one I had already set for voice, and the resonance of that setting continues in this piece for symphonic wind ensemble.

Performed by Barry Cockcroft

A CD recording is also available.

Octennial Song was written by the composer to celebrate his union with Marianne Rothschild on October 10, 2003. The day of the wedding was also their 8-year anniversary, which explains the title (‘octennial’ pertaining to a period of eight years). The piece received its first hearing during the signing of the register in the ‘Elizabeth Room’ in Lonsdale St. Melbourne under the auspices of the Victorian Register of Civil Marriages. It was performed by Barry Cockcroft on a soprano saxophone (for which it was originally conceived), though it may be played on any saxophone in a spirit of radiant happiness.
