for bassoon

First performance: 17 Nov 2021
Performed at the ANAM Set Festival by
Jack Cremer (bassoon)
This ANAM Set commission was generously supported by the Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund – an Australian Government initiative
Program note:
Temporal Sweetness Profile is a study caught between three exploratory parameters: highs and lows, of softs and louds, and fast and slow vibrations. The work’s sole purpose is a continual attempt to bridge two different worlds of register and dynamic, and oscillation.
