Daisy Fragments (Ramuneles Fragmentai) was composed during the winter of 2006-07.

This piece weaves a multi-layered tapestry around fragments of the delicate melody entitled Ramunele (Daisy) composed by Vaclovas Sablevicius (1923 – 2002) As a young man, as he was nearing the completion of his music studies after the Second World War, Vaclovas was imprisoned in 1949 by the Soviets in a Siberian Gulag – he served 6 years there before returning home. The song is very famous throughout Lithuania which expresses a gentle love for his homeland. Vaclovas Sablevicius became a renowned composer, choral conductor, and music pedagogue in Lithuania – he was awarded the national culture prize in 1996. Also in 1996 Sablevicius formed a choir of political prisoners and exiles which participated in many notable national performances.

It is my hope that Daisy Fragments can be seen as being expressive of the sanctity of all of ‘our homelands’; and the inviolability of all of our individual spirits which should never be persecuted in the obeyance of any ideology.

Daisy Fragments was composed for the pianist – my wife - Lauryna Sableviciute and daughter of Vaclovas Sablevicius.

It is dedicated to the memory and example of Vaclovas Sablevicius.
