composer - educator - performer
The Deva Garden was created in the electronic studios of Nottingham University in 1988. The sound sources are mostly analogue, derived from cassette deck and mixing desk feedback loops (a technique that later became known as no input mixing), plus a small amount of drum machine and Yamaha DX7 keyboard.
The work was first performed with live voice at Coventry Centre for the Performing Arts in March 1991, with soprano Patricia Garnham. The text is from 'The Findhorn Garden', courtesy of the Findhorn Foundation.
In 2021, the 1-inch 8-track master tape was professionally transferred to eight separate WAV stems (at 24-bit 48Khz), allowing the piece to be more precisely edited, mixed and remastered, while remaining faithful to the original.
