Stolen VII(a)

'Stolen VII(a)' is a solo violin movement from a larger work ('Stolen' for solo electric guitar and chamber ensemble). In the larger work, the ensemble movements are interspersed with solo movements featuring each of the instruments in the ensemble. These solo movements are designed to be performed both as stand alone pieces, as well as existing as a movement within the context of the larger work. 'Stolen' takes inspiration from the poem 'A Scheme for Brightness' by Australian author Richard James Allen.
