Fourth year
Gorge
- Composed
- 1994
- Instrumentation
- Alto Saxophone, Unaccompanied
- Publisher
- Reed Music
Written on a houseboat holiday in the Gippsland Lakes in Victoria, Australia, where playing in the narrow gorges produced echoes off the cliffs. The saxophonist recreates those echoes with strictly terraced dynamics; Cockcroft calls it his first attempt to make electronic sounds acoustically. About 8 minutes.
