Audio from the workshop with Ligeti Quartet. The score written for ZScore networked music-making system, consists of 8 pages, however, algorithms and manual controls created this extended comprovised work from limited music material.

Comprov with String Quartet

Composition for Viola and computer. This piece explores tensions of the sound movement within the stereo field. All sections start with the sound moving from the left to the right.  In most of the sections the sound position eventually gets balanced across the stereo field.  However, in the last section the battle of the opposite direction movements commences and the sound is pushed back where it started. Viola masterfully played by Benedict Taylor. Composition and computer tinkering by Slavko Zagorac.

Violation (Left, Right and the Centre)

Dedicated to the old concert piano of the music school in Sarajevo which was found in the bombardment rubble during the Balkan wars. 

For the Piano In Glass

Piece for clarinet and MAX MSP, recorded live performance. The title is anagram of Ad Libitum and represents intention to combine improvised and ordered/composed.  Clarinet expertly played by Tom Jackson.

Uma Libidt

'Vexilla' premiere live recording. The composition was written for ZScore networked notation system and performed on 1 May 2018 at Deptford Town Hall by Heather Roche (Bass Clarinet), Valerie Welbanks (Cello) and Patrick Dawkins (Violin) thanks to Goldsmiths Graduate School and Music Department funding.

Vexilla were flag-like objects used as a military standard by units in the ancient Roman army. Later on, the meaning of the word extended to represent any object such as a relic or icon carried as a standard into battle. This piece explores the emotional and rational responses to various flags I have encountered throughout my lifetime, from fervent teenage patriotism to deep distrust of any ceremony which requires enthusiastic flag waving.
