Review
An extension and reworking of her piano piece Turning the Tide, premièred by Bobby Chen in a Darlington Piano Society concert in 2007, the piece evokes in musical terms the transition of the Durham coast from its natural state to industrial wasteland and back to nature again. An impressive work, it perhaps offers possibilities for a professional performance soon by the Northern Sinfonia Orchestra.
