Programme Notes
This work is inspired by the Doomsday clock, which represents the likelihood of a ‘human-caused global catastrophe’. The physical clock situated in Chicago, in 2017 has just been set to ‘Two and a Half Minutes to Midnight’ - the closest it has been to midnight since 1953. The idea was originally conceived after listening to Telemann’s Fantasia no. 1, which very continuously moves forward with a huge sense of movement and forward motion, with multiple layers in the register and small repeating patterns always leading you back to the same note.
Duration: 2 minutes 30 seconds
