The Same Boat No. 2: you can meander on your own terms

‘The Same Boat No. 2: you can meander on your own terms’ is a companion piece to ‘The Same Boat’, written for Helen Cordina as a part of UoBMS’s Creative Exchange.

It takes kaleidoscopic difference as its reason to exist, and is something like a leadsheet – the piece is free performer to define and arrange to their surroundings and ability, meaning at best I am co-composer for this work, and this piece should be able to be adapted to many circumstances. I wrote it hoping to deliberately recognise the work performers have in making music real and powerful, giving them a little more credit.

Given this approach, it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to charge; so this piece is free to perform and re-arrange. I would love to hear what you do with it, so please get in touch!
