String Quartet No.1, Op.51 No.1 (Brahms, Johannes)
The composition of the Lullaby flowed quite naturally as a little cradle-song for Evan. The lyrical violin solo is written over a subtle series of shifting cell-like accompanying patterns and an evolving ground bass.
A longer canonic section leads in to a series of violin cadenzas containing a veiled echo of material heard in the opening movement. Perhaps this movement is written as much as a lullaby for adults who crave both sleep and the redemptive innocence of childhood.
The blues-inflected, celebratory finale transforms the lullaby figures into a joyous Dance. It explores twisting motivic cells in a varied series of energetic tableaux. After some exploration of darker moments, the material plunges headlong into a fast-tempo coda that brings this exuberant movement to a helter-skelter finish. Commissioned by Musica Viva Australia..
