Big Decisions (wind quartet version)

Book cover
On Remembrance Day, 1975, Australia's most dramatic political event took place. The Governor General dismissed the Government, led by Prime Minister Gough Whitlam. Robert Davidson revisited the radio broadcasts from the hours following the Dismissal, gathering now famous speeches from the main players - Gough Whitlam, Sir John Kerr, Malcolm Fraser - along with prominent political figures of the day. These speeches have become the basis for a mini-opera, using inherent rhythms and melodies within each individual's speech to create the musical content. Big Decisions was commissioned by the Southern Cross Soloists and premiered in July 2001.
