Shadow Dance opens with an abrupt explosion that immediately settles into a fluid texture of sustained dissonance. Fragments of colour and melody evolve and build towards the first guitar entry.
In a gentle exploration of polychromatic lyricism, the orchestra resonates and responds to the gestures of the guitar, creating an intimate dialogue between soloist and ensemble.
An extended free-form cadenza forms a bridge to the “dance”, a pulsating, high energy sequence of rhythmic invention based on repetition and variation.
