Aria: The Flame of the Sun
Aria: Flame of the Sun. Inward contemplation gradually yields to riotous morning birdsong from the didjeridu, out of which emerges a soprano voice with harp accompaniment. The ecstatic text, sung in Latin, is by the 12th century Rhineland mystic Hildegard von Bingen.

The Joy of Being
Bird and Flower Chants is divided into two parts:
i. The Joy of Being. A playful, ritualized chanting of the Aboriginal names of some Australian birds of the parrot and cockatoo families: akala, jeriang, gagadju, moolangora, moori etc. The words quickly become fragmentised into phonetic units which are coalesced, a technique I’ve applied in much of my music for the voice where ethos prevails at the expense of discernible meaning.
