the world of ideas. There is also a strong element
of music about or influenced by other musics; many examples of what the
composer likes to call 'companion pieces', music written in the spirit
of earlier times, often particular pieces or using traditional musical
forms. Exploring such connections can be wonderfully realized using the
tools of web media. This means bringing together the musical score with
live sound clips, reference recordings, interpretative and analytical
text, background information, links to performers and performances, lively
visual images, Flash presentations and animation.
