Loch Thoirbheartan An Orchestral Tone Poem

 

Loch Thoirbheartan is an orchestral tone poem composed in May 2023, and is scored for a full string orchestra, solo violin, flute and clarinet in Bb. The title of this work comes from an ancient Gaelic name, which when translated means Lake Torridon, an area of outstanding natural beauty surrounded by impressive mountains situated in the Highlands of North West Scotland. Throughout this piece there are several contrasts in tempo, instrumental textures, different string playing techniques, harmonic mood changes, rhythmic variations, and moments of virtuosity creating a pictorial tapestry to represent this amazing landscape.

Piano and Violin Suite
