Three Venus Haiku

Description

These three exquisite miniatures---composed in 2009 and lasting a total of five minutes---are responses to the poetry of George Bruce. In the first, soloist and piano are fused together as a single instrument, as if singing from a great distance. Suckling describes the following movements as "inside a beam of light" and "a never-ending lullaby." Three Venus Haiku exist in versions for a number of different solo instruments with piano, and this edition is intended for either flute or violin.
