Written in 2011, Visible Light takes the listener on a journey through the seven colours of the visible spectrum. The composition begins with red in the bare feel of A minor and finishes with violet in the dark depths of E flat minor. The choices of keys come from my synesthesia, the feelings of the colours as I hear the music. Visible Light is scored for violin, cello, flute/piccolo, clarinet, bassoon, piano and percussion. This recording was made in Wells Cathedral in 2012 as part of the annual New Music Week.
