'In 10 Miniatures, I wanted to explore the idea oftransformingmaterial in unusual ways. Each miniature is related to its predecessor. I have taken an idea or series of ideas, whether it is a chord, melodic fragment or rhythmic cell, and used it to form the starting point for thenextmovement. Each movement has its own title, ranging from Delicate and Fleeting to Bold and Ceremonial and Urgent andRhythmical.'
