  • Your Call Is Important To Us

  • The Pub Bore

  • Whispering Sweet Nothings

  • Gossip

“The first movement is self-explanatory as anyone who has had to suffer making a telephone call to any company or business will know, and in the 'Pub Bore' the cor anglais is the protagonist (with apologies to all cor anglais players - nothing personal). The third movement is a very gentle languid after consisting of only 6 notes with the whole movement being played pianissimo. The dictionary definition of 'Gossip' includes 'idle banter' and 'malicious talk' and both are exploited in this final movement.” - Rory Boyle
