Close Encounters for Oboe and Piano draws on historic themes connected to the medieval closes and wynds of Dundee, a major Scottish port. Often named after prominent residents, these narrow passageways are given life by the records of their occupiers or through local legend.

Dreamweavers opens, depicting the city’s former cotton industry, with its links to Calcutta referenced later in Raga & Jigs.
A King Undercover tells of the bravery of William Couttie, a local butcher, who helped protect King James V from robbers.
Beefcan Alley strikes a boisterous, kicking-the-can mood, contrasted with a calmer marine scene in the finale, Passage to the Shore.

Suitable for intermediate to advanced oboists.
