Work introduction
"Still" for solo piano was written on the 9th of July 2007, after an evening walk at a reservoir near my house. I was walking around taking photos, and one of the photos depicted a little yellow dinghy tied to the pier, lying motionless in the water against a backdrop of trees, mangroves and the evening sun.
"Still" was premiered by the composer on the 8th of October 2007 at The Arts House in Singapore. This piece won a Runner Up position in the "Instrumental" category of the 2009 UK Songwriting Contest.
