About

This piece was inspired by the calls of two tui – one who started visiting the banksia tree in my garden in about August 2005, and another who hangs out near the NZ School of Music at Victoria University in Wellington. I have enjoyed some good banter with both of these birds, each of which has its own unique, consistent song, which varies subtly on occasion.


Dedication note

to Uwe Grodd, extraordinary flautist and inspiring musician
