Like all my recent timecode-supported polytemporal compositions, liquid music for ensemble is an assemblage of materials self-borrowed and re- contextualised from extant compositions. The piece is built around liquid music (2017), a solo clarinet work written as a companion piece to the virtuosic alto flute solo, streaming (2014). To this extent, it self-borrows and transforms material from streaming that together with material from the string quartet, observation 1 (2015), Dark Gravity (2014) and On a Theme of Hermes (2012), is expanded to make a compact concerto-type work for clarinet and small ensemble.

liquid music and liquid music for ensemble were written to showcase the abundant expressive and technical talents of Gleb Kanasevich, to whom both works are dedicated. The clarinet material itself is full of cross-references and further self- borrowed, self-referential content and transformations of these materials held together by a fabric of self-similar rhythmic units permeating the work as a whole. liquid music for ensemble is conceived and should be performed as a stream of consciousness; a single, uninterrupted flow of ideas constantly in a state of flux and regeneration; an entanglement of sounds, detailed, colourful, gestural and frequently explosive along with transient, self-reflective, elegiac passages, particularly toward the close of the piece.
