Published by Oxford University Press Digital (OX.9780193202641). ISBN 9780193202641.For solo alto and guitar. Settings of nine poems by Irene Noel-Baker which take and transform elements of Greek myths.

Powers alludes to each kind of music and, in a way, re-invents lute-songs.

ISBN 9780193201071.This four-movement work represents the composer's desire 'to write a piece of real chamber music, intimate and conversational in tone, drawing the listener into its worlds'. The result, he writes, 'is a rather inward-looking, reflective work, not without a capricious aspect, but only occasionally raising its voice.'.

The composer writes: The structure is a short set of double variations, the two themes following a short introduction. One is flamboyant and rhetorical, the other gentle and lyrical. The first develops rhythmically, through a toccata to a vigorous dance, the second becomes increasingly decorated so that the line is almost dissolved, but finally emerges in its clearest, simplest form. In a coda each musical character disappears into silence.
