Dreamarena

Adrian Moore

Programme notes

Dreamarena is the second in a proposed series of ‘abstract’ works (of which Junky is a part). Whereas Junky has a clear form and simple melodic and harmonic structures, Dreamarena reverts back to more abstract electroacoustic material, shaping form continuously and using gesture as the primary means of communication. As the title suggests, the work presents a ‘dream arena’ where the listener is flying/observing.
