Postlude

'Postlude' was one of 10 birthday candles written for Mobius' 10th anniversary and is scored for flute, clarinet, harp and string quartet. At just 3 minutes in length and with a lento tempo marking, 'Postlude' could be programmed perfectly as an intelligent alternative to the stereotypically flashy encore or even as an unusual concert opener. The music begins with some beautiful choral-like chords from the string quartet before a number of virtuosic flashes are injected by a flute line which gains prominence throughout the work.
