Particles 1, 2 & 3

The Particles series is about the viscosity of air. It sparkles and dances around us, pushing up against everything we see. Particles 1, 2 & 3 exist in two versions: for solo violin with different orchestral sections (Particle 1 – double basses; Particle 2 – violas; Particle 3 – second violins); and for violin, cello, piano and clarinet, as arranged for Alisios Camerata, Zagreb. The Alisios Camerata performance of Particle 2 at Banff Centre in 2017 can be watched here. There is also an arrangement of Particle 2 for youth orchestra, written for London Music Masters, in which professional tutors play the demanding passages.
