crinkum-crankum - elaborate decoration or detail; something full of twists and turns.

A single thread slowly becomes increasingly tangled in the middle, twisting and turning, folding back on itself, knotty, matted. Only a short length remains neat, protruding from the other end of the puzzle.

Compos Mentis, the useful Latin phrase we’ve held onto, translates literally into English as ‘of sound mind’. This fast and fluid solo for bassoon primarily stems from a history of listening to bebop music and its lucid tangling phrases and wild imagination. The swing is a fundamental element to the piece as might be expected, but frequent exchanges with straight, compound and tuplet rhythms add to its developed identity, keeping the feel fresh and evolving. Dynamism in pitch and volume is also exploited, with coats of colour from timbral techniques splashed onto a melody that explores and recycles itself freely, evocatively and to a post-modal mindset. Compos Mentis was written for Ben Hudson in 2019 as part of the Psappha Composing For: Bassoon project.
