Pan Penseroso (2009) is a concerto for solo flute or two flutes and orchestra in three movements: 1. The Noise of Folly 2. Prophetic Strain 3. More is Meant (than meets the ear) Pan Penseroso and the titles of its three movements are taken from John Miltons great poem Il Penseroso (The Contemplative Man). The music aligns itself with this response to the poets earlier LAllegro (the Cheerful Man). In my concerto the flutist Pan, like the mature Milton, casts a reflective musical eye on the world, renouncing all vain deluding joyes, so as to better hear the Sweet Bird that shunnst the noise of folly Written for the master flutist Robert Dick, Pan Penseroso includes a number of procedures explored in his pioneering book The Other Flute: A Performance Manual of Contemporary Techniques.

Using text from Franz Kafka's short parable A Message from the Emperor, this work describes, in the composer's words, a glorious being, never seen by his countless lowly subjects, who, from his death bed, dispatches an indefatigable messenger (a prophet perhaps) with a most important message - just for you. For various practical reasons however the message cannot possibly be delivered. And even if it finally arrived the one who sent it will have died long ago. A Message from the Emperor is played and recited by two percussionists facing each other at a slight diagonal angle, with the marimba placed audience left and the vibraphone at audience right. For advanced players.
