about

I wrote the Flickering Flame in 2000 when I was involved with Friends of Tibet. It struck me that despite great repression Tibetans had held onto their culture, but that, like a flickering flame, the link was tenuous and could extinguish at any time. Perhaps in the uncertain times of today the same concept could apply more broadly.

Instruments: Clarsach Harp - bowed and plucked (Pilgrim), Porotiti (Bob Bickerton), Whale Jawbone Tumutumu, Albatross Wing Bone Ororuarangi (Brian Flintoff), Albatross Wing Bone Pōrutu (Brian Flintoff), Tibetan Singing Bowl (for Martin), Irish Flute (Terry McGee), Tin Whistle (Burke), Uilleann Pipes (Crowley/Fromont), Gaia Synth (Roland), Double Bass Pizzicato Patch (Logic) - all played by Bob
Bickerton

Technical: AEA N8 ribbon microphone, Sennheiser MKH 8040 stereo pair, Focusrite ISA Two pre-amp, UAD Apollo 8P, Logic, Outboard Effects: TC Electronic Triple Delay and Ditto X4, Roland Space Echo, Onboard Effects: UAD: Moog Multimode Filter, MXR Flanger, Cyclonic Panner, Teletronix LA2A and LA3A, Lexicon 224, Fairchild 670, TC Electronic: TC1210 Spatial Expander, TC8210 Reverb, Brickwall HD, Logic: Delay Designer and Channel EQ
