PEFCHTF-D
Commissioned by the Scotia Festival of Music for percussionists Evelyn Glennie and Beverley Johnston with partial support from the Canada Council of the Arts, Tongues of Fire is a concerto for percussion and orchestra in four movements set in alternating keys (movements 1 and 3 in D and 2 and 4 in A). As the title implies, there is a Pentecostal theme running through the piece but not in any programmatic sense. It is more a meditation on the emotional and psychological states of Christ’s disciples during the early days of the Church than a depiction of the story of the Pentecost. It is also a reflection on the turbulent times that we live in presently and our desperate search for some semblance of structure in the midst of ever growing discontinuity and fragmentation.
