Product details
Paul Cutlan is one of the very few Australian composers who likes
to work in the overlap between classical and jazz music. In this
project he has found an ideal partner in The NOISE quartet, which
loves to extend its performance techniques with improvisation.
The main work, Across the Top, was written for solo bass
clarinet (played by the composer) and solo bass (performed
impeccably by Brett Hirst). This is an extended piece inspired by
Paul's many tours to the north of Australia and his responses to
the sights and sounds of the outback and its peoples.
Of the remaining three works on this CD, The Dawning
Dark is a group improvisation and Times Past and
Perhaps Next Time are older works of Paul's that seemed
eminently suited to the forces available, and have thus earned
themselves a new life.
Listeners will be inspired by the haunting sound-world of this
instrumental combination and the beauty of the music.
Duration: 49 min.
Liner notes include program notes and biographical notes about composer and performers.
