The Colour of Pomegranates for alto flute and piano was composed for flautist James Dutton and pianist Mark Kincaid and received its first performance in 1995 at the Purcell Room at London's Southbank Centre. The 7-minute piece takes its title from a film by Armenian director Sergei Parajanov (1924-1990). In one scene, a peasant sits on a cupola playing his flute to the sound of church bells. In Anderson's piece, the alto flute reflects this image in a slow lyrical melody, whilst the piano part invokes the tolling of bells. …A beautiful, intense little nocturne…The Sunday Times (Paul Driver), 15 January 1995.

Ward-Steinman originally wrote his Incantation and Dance for the great James Pellerite (who premiered the work), as an accompanied solo for the five-hole Native American flute. He found that this version for alto flute takes advantage of its larger range and opens up the piece to new possibilities. The foritified piano uses a clave or wooden ruler to cover a range of strings, and is unchanged in this version. A chamber orchestra accompaniment is also available on rental. For advanced performers. Duration: 6'.
