Elliott Gyger's Petit Testament (2008) for soprano, mezzo and piano and Andrew Ford's Willow Songs (2009) for soprano, mezzo, flute/piccolo/alto flute, clarinet/bass clarinet, percussion and piano. Both works were conceived for the two versatile voices of Halcyon - who feature as soloists, in duo and sometimes even masquerading as each other.
