Etius Suite
Instrumentation – piano 4 hands
Duration – c.3′
Written in Brighton 2010
Movements:

A relatively simple, yet entirely palindromic suite in 3 movements, written to a brief for a monthly composition game. All movements are approximately 1 minute in length, and have 2 axes of symmetry – that of time lying at the centre of movement 2; that of space inhabiting the D4 key of the piano, between the two pianist’s hands.
