Written as part of the ?Voix nouvelles? programme at Fondation Royaumont, Limun is dedicated to Barbara Maurer and Melise Mellinger of ensemble recherche who gave the first performance and have since performed it around Europe.
"Limun (lemon in Arabic) is a plant that has the ability to bloom continuously, so you can see blossoms, green fruits and ripe fruits on the same tree at the same time. The title is symbolic. It does not describe the piece, but rather reflects the period of my life of which the piece was written." - Clara Iannotta

Written in memory of Peter Crossley-Holland, a former colleague at the BBC where Sir John Manduell was founding the BBC Music Programme, this superb duet was given a first performance by Richard Howarth (Violin) and Tom Dunn (Viola) at the Bridgewater Hall in August 2002.While a short piece, there is plenty of technical challenge in this work, with the Recitative spanning the full range octaves leading on to an Aria in 11/8, featuring muted, pizzicato, double stopping and harmonic passages.
