James Weeks ' Two Perscriptions for Piano. I - Gloomy Clouds (2002/4) II – Ring (2002/3) ' Perscription is 'writing-through' (reading done with the pen). Gloomy Clouds dissolves the notes of Liszt's Nuages Gris into contrapuntal nebulae; Ring is a series of four canons on Howard Skempton's chordal Ring in the Valiant. ' - James Weeks
