Work Overview
During the early stages of composing this work, the working title was: "when you look at the distant mountains and they are all overlapping." Hopefully the final title, Montage, captures this a little more eloquently. When visiting Canberra, I always have a sense of the rising hills encircling the town, lush and green and visible from many vantage points indoors and outdoors. The three instruments each carry fragments of a melodic line that undulates in combination between them. The varying size and scale of the instruments allows for the layers of the music to be carried different distances, with a close audience hearing all three layers in the foreground, and the carillon able to echo as a lone background much further.
