Composition Insight
Dreams of Isolation was written for and premiered by Sir Andrew Davies and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra at Edinburgh's Usher Hall. Described as “unique and original” (Sir Andrew Davis) the piece is a reflection on the transformative force of dreams with “haunting textures” and “impressive melodic writing” (The Art’s Desk).
