The final movement, &#8220;Ocean floor,&#8221; is a brief depiction of a deep aquatic environment, musically imagining the scurrying of sea creatures across a dimly-lit sea bed.<\/p>\n<p><em>Three Pieces for Harp<\/em> was commissioned by Australian harpist, Jacinta Dennett, and performed as part of her Threaded Stars tour.
