Composed in 2004, Incantations is a three-movement work, influenced by Native American flute music. The first movement is slow and expressive; it begins and ends with an oboe solo. The second movement is a lively duo in an improvisational style. The third movement is similar in structure and style to the third movement, also beginning and ending with a solo.
Incantations was premiered and recorded by Geoffrey Burgess on oboe and Elaine Funaro on harpsichord. Mr. Burgess performed the 1st and 3rd movements on the oboe d’amore and the 2nd movement on the baroque oboe, giving the movements a somewhat darker and more serene timbre. Their recording is on the album, Incantations & Inspirations.
