4. Toot Suite
5. Epilogue

The Dream Scape solo movement was written first and is complete in itself. However, it seemed lonely and needed to be part of a larger work; so the other movements were written around it. Unusually, the outside movements are in no way related to the dream. This is quite deliberate, the dream being an escape from the harsher sounds surrounding it
Flute Sonata Duration 18'
Not strictly in sonata form, but then what work is these days. In three movements, the second movement is the father-son duet from "Theseus and the Minotaur". I don't usually reuse tunes, but it seemed a perfect fit and is rather glorious to boot.
Alvirini Suite (Episodes in the life of an Impette) Duration 17'
This is a six movment suite about the adventures of Alvirini, a young impish maiden and the adventures she gets into.
