Work Overview
These four miniatures (or 'visions') are based on different perceptions of home collected from members Steel City Strings. In early 2025, I asked the musicians to provide me with a word or phrase that describes where they feel at home, with the idea to use at least a few of these to inform my miniatures. The responses received were highly detailed and varied. I decided to consider the themes and ideas that they dealt with, many of which were common across multiple responses. In settling on the final ideas behind each miniature, I also decided to consider elements that were unique and special to some of our shared experiences in Australia. Each movement is accompanied on the score by a short epigraph, sourced from responses I received.
