The pieces in this collection are not intended as a cycle - performers are free to select as they chose from among them.There is, intentionally, a range of technical difficulty.

This project is open ended, with further pieces to be added in the future. It is dedicated to the young pianist whoseplaying rekindled my compositional spark, and to whom I will always be deeply indebted.

In legend the last Muslim king of Granada, Boabdil, on being driven out by the Christians, is said to have looked back from a distant hill and grieved for the loss of all he held dear; for the end of his civilisation, and for what would not return. It is still known as El suspiro del Moro - the sigh of the Moor.

The Little White Girl

Behind the veil, forbidden,Shut up from Sight,

Love, is there sorrow hidden,Is there delight?

Is joy thy dower or grief,White rose of weary leaf,

Late rose whose life is brief, whose loves are light?
