Cree Brown's Icescape is the first New Zealand orchestral work to celebrate a passionate engagement with the unforgiving natural world of Antarctica. Icescape reveals some of the various moods of the polar continent, the diverse ice forms and the composer's personal impressions of being there. The orchestra revels in rugged soundscapes – abrasive string timbres, wind instruments that evoke bird calls, primal brass glissandi. Thick blocks of sound contrast with unstable rhythms and expanses of calm. The work's vast timbral spectrum is as vital an element as dynamics or rhythm, its intriguing and memorable sound world conjuring powerful images of this journey to an otherworldly place.

First performance 3rd December 2003 at St. Martin-in-the-Fields

Subsequent revisions have been small, mainly consisting of a brand new Benedictus (to replace one which, in the original performance, had beeen borrowed from a liturgical setting of the Mass), the expansion of the Dies Irae and the creation of a bigger orchestration, as an alternative to the chamber scoring, to make the most of the forces available at the second performance, in St. Petersburg.
