Oorspronklik

Retrospective Family Portraits , written in 2002, four and a half years after the composer and his former wife parted company, is a deeply felt work. Lyrical and joyful but with an emotional sting in the tail, it is idiomatically written for the three instruments in the composer's usual Anglo-French melodic style. The three movements are. Kim - the family dog - a white Boxer, pictured galumphing along Somerset country lanes before taking off across the fields in joyful pursuit of rabbits and moles, finally returning home to sink exhausted into her basket. Geneviève - the composer's former wife - French, blonde, gracious, artistic and a wonderful cook, though not without her more enigmatic moments. Rowena - the composer's daughter - memories of the young Rowena on happy holidays in France pervade the music until, without warning, the mood changes towards the end. composer and daughter had not met since the family break-up four and a half years previously, and the music calls out Rowena's name into the distance, as did the composer's heart. The premiere of this work took place as part of the 2002 Brighton Festival Fringe, and was performed by the Hilser Trio with Rachel Smith on flute, Rachel Firmager on Cello and Yoko Ono on Piano.

Terugwerkende Familie portrette, geskryf in 2002, vier en 'n half jaar na die komponis en sy voormalige vrou geskei maatskappy, is 'n diep gevoel werk. Liriese en vreugdevolle maar met 'n emosionele angel in die stert, dit is idiomaties geskryf vir die drie instrumente in die komponis se gewone Anglo-Franse melodiese styl. Die drie bewegings is. Kim - die familie hond - 'n wit bokser, uitgebeeld galumphing saam Somerset land bane voor af te neem oor die velde in vreugdevolle nastrewing van hase en mol, uiteindelik terug huis te sink uitgeput in haar mandjie. Geneviève - die komponis se voormalige vrou - Frans, blonde, genadig, artistieke en 'n wonderlike kok, maar nie sonder haar meer raaiselagtige oomblikke. Rowena - die komponis se dogter - herinneringe van die jong Rowena op gelukkige vakansie in Frankryk deurtrek die musiek, totdat, sonder waarskuwing, die bui verander die rigting van die einde. komponis en dogter nie ontmoet het sedert die familie break-up vier en 'n half jaar gelede, en die musiek roep Rowena se naam in die verte, en so ook die komponis se hart. Die première van hierdie werk plaasgevind het as deel van die 2002-Brighton Festival Byvoordele en is uitgevoer deur die Hilser Trio met Rachel Smith op die fluit, Rachel Firmager op tjello en Yoko Ono op klavier.
