Broken Landscape began as a musical reflection on the Black Saturday bushfires (2009), one of the worst  bushfires to occur in Australia, and its impact on local wildlife. Whilst I was composing the piece in 2019, devastating fires began in New South Wales and Queensland killing a massive population of native wildlife and burning more than 3.1 million hectares of bushland. This piece comprises many notated sounds of Australian animals, usually making alert or alarm calls. 

This work was comissioned by Zana Clarke to celebrate 25 years of Orpheus Music and 20 years if them publishing Australian Music.
