Dŵr, Haul, Gwynt, Golau (Water, Sun, Wind, Light) integrates environmental words and visual materials created by young people that coincide with the piano score. Tir (Creadigaeth/Etifeddiaeth) (Land (Creation/Legacy)) responds to the notion of creation and legacy of the earth with Biblical references, in addition to exploring the pianist’s agricultural roots on Anglesey during the nineteenth century.
