"The final piece was a composition of Ned's called “Chamundi Hill” where Keiko imitated the sound of the tambura by intriguingly ‘bowing' the strings of the piano, which earned them a shout for encores and a standing ovation." - Marianne De Nazareth, The Hindu

Duration: 12'



'For Bob' was written for the 'For Bob' concert in Splendor on June 6, 2015, dedicated to Irish musicologist, writer and musician Bob Gilmore. 

For Bob uses a polytempo technique I’ve been working on. Each player follows a metronome with a different tempo on it. Harmonies and melodies float by, attempting to evoke timelessness.
