First performance: 1976; Johannesburg; Michael Blake harpsichord
Programme note
When I was invited to compose the music for one of the first SABC documentary films "Weefkuns in Wording", I consulted Andrew Tracey, and he offered me a transcriptionof a mbira piece, for which I created further variation. I subsequently expanded the music into a concert piece for harpsichord.
