Programme Note
Originally devised as a sort of narrative-less chamber opera for solo voice, this work is one which is a collection of various aspects of music and life I enjoy; my favourite colours, characters form Childhood, imagery and daydreams.
These were banded together into the text I devised, which when I was writing also followed the cheeky and hyper sexualised Satyr through many conquests and adventures.
I guess I’ve tried to capture his day dreams and desires as well, but in no way do I wish this to govern the listener; take from the piece what you will.
