About

Fu You (ephemeron in Chinese), an insect with an extremely short lifespan, is said to release a miraculous shine before it disappears into nothingness. Music, like ephemera, is transitory and has its very definite limits.


Commissioned note

Commissioned by the New Zealand String Quartet

Performance history

Premiered in 2014 by the Canadian clarinetist Jim Campbell and the New Zealand String Quartet in the Parry Sound Chamber Music Festival in Canada
