A collection of pieces I wrote and recorded for the puppet show 'Flutter' by String Bean Puppets (Anna Bailey).

About Flutter:
A bat who is afraid of the dark meets a glow worm who thinks she is a star. Friendship triumphs fear as the glow worm leads the bat out of darkness, and together they fly. A whimsical show which introduces children to some of the challenges faced by native species in Aotearoa New Zealand. 

Thanks to the Philipp Family Foundation who funded the development of this show, including the music.

Thanks to Tahi: New Zealand Festival of Solo Performance, who supported the debut performance of Flutter in September 2023.

Thanks to Nature Sounds NZ (https://soundcloud.com/naturesounds_nz) whose beautiful recordings of the New Zealand bush were used in the show.
