Three Venus Haiku

These three exquisite miniatures - composed in 2009 and lasting a total of 5 minutes - are responses to the poetry of George Bruce. In the first, soloist and piano are fused together as a single instrument, as if singing from a great distance. Suckling describes the following movements as ''inside a beam of light'' and ''a never-ending lullaby''. Three Venus Haiku exist in versions for a number of different solo instruments with piano, and this edition is intended for either flute or violin. See more
