On 9th November 2018 I ordered waffles for breakfast from the Harvest Café in Mylor. I was setting out on the final day of a week-long solo hike through the Adelaide Hills, and waffles had never tasted so good. As I continued along the trail to Bridgewater, I found a succession of waltzes spinning merrily through my head. I have no idea if they had anything to do with the waffles, but they certainly sounded sweet enough.

This piece was commissioned by The Firm: Adelaide New Music. It was performed by Alison Rayner, Thomas Marlin and Michael Ierace, and recorded by Ray Thomas.
