Under Aldebaran (Twelve Transcendental Concert Studies on Themes from the Australian Poets)

Under Aldebaran is based on the poem The Incarnation of Sirius by James McAuley.

.....Aldebaran
Still glittered with its sad, alternate fire
Blue as of memory, red as of desire.

.....from James McAuley: The Incarnation of Sirius in Collected Poems, 30-1 (Pymble, NSW: Angus and Robertson/HarperCollins, 1994)
