Sadie Harrison's Hantu for Double Bass and Piano. Composed 2013 and published 2016. Duration: 8 minutes.Hantu was written especially for Nick Lum as part of the first prize awarded for his performance in the Wells Double Bass Recital Competition in 2013. The title means ‘ghost’ in Malaysian (Lum is from Kuala Lumpar) with the piece taking its inspiration from the country’s annual Festival of the Hungry Ghosts. The Piano is transformed into a westernised gamelan orchestra with ‘gongs’ ‘kendang drums’ and ‘bamboo flutes’. The music ishighly repetitive with rhythm and pitch cycles used to imitate the structure of much gamelan music.The piece is divided into three main sections. The first and last are dark and menacing  marked ‘a slow procession of spirits’. The central section entitled ‘The ghost’s dance’ is a quirky virtuosic interplay between pizz and arco building to a wild crescendo before a return to the procession which gradually disappears into the night.The Double Bass is often used in its highest lyrical register singing out fragments from a Malaysian melody entitled Anak Indung. This tune is heard over the top of the procession music an attempt to dispel the evil spirits through the beauty of song.The piece was kindly commissioned by The Friends of Music at Wells Cathedral School and given its first performance by Nick Lum and Gemma Beeson at Wells Cathedral School on 23 June 2013.

Edward Greenfield says 'Taking the word Hum literally Knussen has subjected A.A.Milne to some lighthearted but intense expressionist treatment even developing a series of aphorisms which present such incidents as Piglet meeting the Heffalump with an economy and compression that Webern might have envied'The Guardian 15th June 1983

Conducteur et parties Saxophone Quartet (SATB) The Three Songs (Trois Chansons) dating from 1914/15 were arranged for four a cappella voices by Ravel immediately after he had written the music of these pieces. The lyrics were penned by the composer himself. The songs represent Ravel’s sole contribution to choral literature. The first song consists of three sections and tells the story of Nicolette, who sets out to pick flowers in the fields. Just like Little Red Ridinghood, she meets a wolf who asks her if she is on her way to her grandmother’s house (M.1-13). Fleeing from him, she meets a page who wonderswhether she would like to have him as her “lover true”. She dismisses his proposition though she finds it hard to do so (M. 14-39). In the third section, she encounters a plump, unhandsome man (lento!). He speaks to her:”Stay, stay, my Nicolette, all this gold I give to thee”, and - “VIVO” - Nicolette takes refuge in his arms. (M.40 to end). The Three Lovely Birds from Paradise are sky-blue, white as fallen snow and bright red - just like the colors of the Tricolore, the national flag of France - which has been interpreted in many reviews as a sign of an increasingly nationalistic attitude becoming apparent in the war year of 1914. This song mourns the loss of the beloved one who went to war. The Ronde is also made up of three sections. The old women are the first to sing (M.1-28). They warn the young maidens against entering the forest since it is inhabited by all kinds of dangerous (male) beasts. Then (M. 29 – 56) the old men warn the young lads against going into the woods because of the numerous (female) demons living there. The irony of the story is to be found in the final answer of the young people (as of M. 57), who conclude: “We will not go into the woods since the old folks have frightened off all the beasts, anyway.”
