Tutti e soli is scored for a chamber orchestra consisting of flute clarinet bassoon percussion and strings. It is a work in four movements examining as its name suggests the tension and dialogue between soloists small groups of instruments and the whole orchestra. Timbres and unusual performing techniques receive a lot of attention as in most of Bergman's works. The mood is most fragile in the ghost-like mysterious meditation of the second movement and most forcible in the complex closing Energico

This authentic arrangement of ten movements from the Water Music suites dates from Handel’s lifetime but is published here for the first time edited by the distinguished Handel scholar Donald Burrows. Its simple light scoring makes it excellently suited to use by schools and small instrumental groups. It can be performed in many different combinations from the original two violins bassoon and continuo to string quartet or wind-based group.

Commissioned by the St Magnus Festival with funds from the Scottish Arts Council. First performed by The Fires of London in June 1978 in St Magnus Cathedral Kirkwall.The work takes as its starting-point a sequence of dreams related by Franz Kafka in his diaries of 1910. Eduardova was a Russian ballerina whom Kafka had seen dancing in Prague in the early part of this century. The music of The Dancer Eduardova is based on dancing particularly the csardas which in his dream Kafka had asked the dancer to perform just one time more. Kafka's dream-sequences contain the uncomfortable contrasts of the grace of the dancer and the loathsome gestures of unconscious intriguers;there are abrupt changes of mood to sorrow and despair. Flowers presented by all the Princes of Europe appear in the dreams as do trains and trams on which Eduardova travels with two vigorous violinists.

Lament was composed in 1988.The scoring was chosen for its dark colour: oboe doubling cor anglais clarinet doubling bass clarinet viola and cello. The melodic lines and harmony are often inflected with quarter-tones.
