All six movements featured on Harrison's2001 album Taking Flight. This piece is for Female Voice Flute Violin Viola and Cello.Australian born freelance composer and performer Sadie Harrison’s unique fusion of elements fromindigenous Lithuanian music and poetry with her own modernist often abrasive style have led her to be compared with Bartok but with her own warmth and grandeur.Since 2012 Harrison has been working alongside a long list of well accomplished musicians; Paul Carey Peter Sheppard Skaerved Sergej Okrushko Alex South Duncan Honeybourne are among many who have had the privilege work with Harrison so far.Performances of Harrison's works have been given across the world by Lontano London Chamber Symphony Music Projects/ London Ixion Okeanos Bournemouth Sinfonietta Kokoro and the St. Christopherus ChamberOrchestra and many others.
