John Alexander won the 1999 BIBF Composition Competition and has written a number of impressive works for double bass. A hauntingly atmospheric stillness permeates Haiku Journey and it evokes an ethereal simplicity within a 20th-century vocabulary.
"This work is of a very minimalist nature. Muted, moving delicately...the piece seems to float somewhere above the stage, hovering only briefly until dissipating - a beautiful musical embodiment of the Basho poem." [ISB]
Edition is published with accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings.
