The title track, Three Pieces That Disappear, for orchestra and fixed audio, is one of several works written for the BBC Philharmonic. Coult says: 'The three movements of this piece are linked by a vague, loosely connected set of ideas about music being remembered, forgotten, misremembered, imagined or deteriorating'. As well as music disappearing, those ideas include the birth of Coult's child (resulting in a turn towards sounds that signify childhood), his own health problems (making words and sounds indistinct), and a dictaphone which misremembers sounds. The work is conducted by Martyn Brabbins.
