Dr. Eric Skytterholm Egan’s siúil go ciúin, a 50-minute cycle for prepared piano, was premiered in Norway in September and the recording is now available online.

The piece is constructed entirely from extracts of other works from the past 500 years. It is rooted in a desire to challenge historical hierarchies and inspired by James Joyce’s approach to quotation.
