I have seen quite a few things lately from this Sheffield-born composer. This new offering is a tremolo piece in D minor, beginning with a little introduction of 24 bars before the tremolo technique enters, with its opening melody based on that of the introduction. It is in 3/4 time with six quavers in the bass against 24 demisemiquavers in the treble. The melody is good as are the harmonies and providing you have a decent tremolo technique (not always the case, even with really good players) you may find much to enjoy in this work, although there is nothing particularly original in its conception, but is nevertheless a pleasant piece of writing.
