About the work:

IIn Indoor Yachting, the domestic and the majestic collide. The piece finds beauty in the rythmic regularity of housework, specifically the act of making a bed.

The music captures the exact moment a sheet floats downward, mirroring the movement of a sail catching the wind. This juxtaposition - the everyday action versus the metaphor of sailing - invites the performer and listener to find the sublime in the routine. It is a work of wit, grace, and rhythmic charm with a contemporary lens.

Recital Programming: A perfect character piece to add variety and rhythmic interest to a contemporary program.

Educational Repertoire: Ideal for intermediate students (approx. Grade 5-6) looking to explore contemporary Australian techniques and storytelling.

Exam Material: An excellent example of how contemporary music can utilise gesture to comment on modern life.
