Composed in 2015, RINGING CHANGES is in part derived from the fourth movement of Levinsonâ??s Time and the Bell... The essence of that movement is a constantly evolving perpetual-motion single line in fluidly changing rhythmic groupings, and in shifting modes inspired both by Balinese gamelan and North Indian ragas (both authentic and invented), which is now developed in counterpoint. Another version of the original movement also forms the centerpiece of the solo piano work, Ragamalika.

Epithalami um was commissioned by John Sell as a birthday present for his wife Jane, and is dedicated to her and to Malcolm Binns. It was written during summer 2006 and derived from the two great chords that swing to and fro during the Coronation Scene in Mussorgsky's opera Boris Godunov. These provide a series of seven notes (heard in the quick flourishes after the opening chords) which provide the basis for the tunes and the harmonies through most of the work. The idea of bell sounds is carried through not only the chords during the piece but also some of the techniques (e.g. the gradually changing repeated patterns, rather like bell-ringing changes, encountered towards the end,or the quiet and distant, uneven tintinnabulation heard at the end of the central slow section). An epithalamium (or epithalamion) is a song or poem in honour of a bride and bridegroom - though technically a wedding piece, it seemed an appropriate title for a work honouring an anniversary, especially one where bell-sounds provided the original inspiration.

This work was inspired by the legend of the Klokkeven, in which a church bell plays the leading part. It forms a connecting thread throughout the composition. The work consists of three continuous movements, each with its own atmosphere and character. In The Black Robber, we hear dark sounds in the brass and fast chromatic motifs. The Swamp contains mysterious low parallel fifths, imploring solos and chafing dissonant harmonies. Finally, in The Bell sweetly musing solos are hopefully accompanied by the church bell ringing from a distance. After a number of changes in tempo, the music ends in a grand tutti.
