  • Mills, Richard Four Miniatures
    Four Miniatures (l992) Richard Mills “The opening gestures of this work contain all the elements of harmony and melody which form the textures of the later movements. Movements I and III are relatively darker in color than their counterparts and the formative gestures of the first miniature recur as a refrain in Miniature IV, whose more direct harmonies place them in a new context. Miniature II is toccata-like. Miniature III is an extended development of the material from Miniature I, the opening chord of which forms the climax point of Miniature III in an extended articulation across the range of the keyboard. Miniature IV is scherzando in quality and the piece concludes with a witty transformation of the opening gesture, ending with a wry comment from the piano. Four Miniatures was composed for the Verdehr Trio.” ─Richard Mills The world premiere of Four Miniatures was on September 29, 1992 at MacArthur Hall, Flint School of Performing Arts, Flint, Michigan. Richard Mills (born 1949, Toowoomba, Queensland) is one of Australia's most frequently commissioned and performed composers and a frequent guest conductor of Australia's leading orchestras. He went to Nudgee College in Brisbane and studied in London at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. He worked as a percussionist in England and with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra. Mills’ compositions range from major orchestral and choral works to ballet music. He has been commissioned to write for the Victorian State Opera, Opera Australia, the Sydney Symphony, the Chicago Chamber Musicians Brass, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, the Perth International Festival, the Commonwealth Games, the Olympic Games, and the Australian Bicentenary.

After practising alone for months, we have a deeper understanding that collaboration is at the essence of music, and that sharing this rewarding experience with the public is its most important gift to us all. We are listening with fresh ears and responses, and we are energised by the mutual empowerment and inspiration that blossom when we play and listen together. We are thrilled to perform for you in the Melbourne Town Hall! This performance featuring the University of Melbourne Concert Band and Wind Symphony, under the direction of Associate Professor Nicholas Williams, has been prepared with great enthusiasm and anticipation. The program includes compositions written in the UK, France, US, and Australia, and many of the works will be receiving their Victorian and Australian premieres. The music will display the fabulous array of vibrant colours, energies, and rhythms that are uniquely attainable with large ensembles of wind, brass, and percussion instruments, and I know you will delight in the sonic power and spectacle the students will create together.

I’m not sure I buy that. It was only 1500 years ago, and I don’t think Arabic then was so different from modern Arabic that millions of Arab Muslims make such an elementary mistake. But who knows ... maybe Allah really only did mean that the nearly arrived would be greeted with a plate of figs ..
