Hall of Ghosts was composed in 2020 during the Covid lockdown period. Evocative of imagined spirits in an empty concert hall, the music pits dramatic silences, amid searching and plaintive phrases, against a lively middle section - a dialogue between the ticking of time and an instrument striving to make itself heard. The work was inspired by piccoloist Gudrun Hinze's video for Harberg's Prayer Project, filmed in the hauntingly empty Gewandhaus Chamber Music Hall, and later transcribed by the composer for bassoon.
