Composed in 2015, RINGING CHANGES is in part derived from the fourth movement of Levinson’s Time and the Bell... The essence of that movement is a constantly evolving perpetual-motion single line in fluidly changing rhythmic groupings, and in shifting modes inspired both by Balinese gamelan and North Indian ragas (both authentic and invented), which is now developed in counterpoint. Another version of the original movement also forms the centerpiece of the solo piano work, Ragamalika.

Written in 1979 after seeing an exhibition of Rothko's paintings in Cologne, O is one of Barry's earliest published works. Both piano parts are the same and the composer describes the work as an exploration of ornamentation (the bending of an existing melody) and an etude in co-ordination (the challenge of playing exactly together).

Variations, Nocturne & Finale On An English Sea-Song for Piano and Orchestra Op.60. Orchestral part arranged for a second Piano by David Lyon.
After a brief introduction to the Orchestra, the melody of an eighteenth century whalermen's ballad with verse and refrain 'Blow Ye Winds', is given out, the verse by the Piano, the refrain divided between Orchestra and Piano. Then follow thirteen variations, the last three being pianistic etudes, accompanied Orchestrally. The nocturne evokes the nostalgia of a long voyage and the finale the excitement, dangers and glory of a triumphant chase. In these movements, as well as in the variations, the entiremusical material is derived from the basic theme. The work is designed as a virtuoso concert-piece for the pianist, with supporting Orchestral flashes of colour and points of contrast.
