Gratias Ago "Thank you" was written on the 14th/15th June 1998 as a thank you to Louise Bunce (nee Taylor) for page turning at a concert on the 13th, in which I played my Etude Fantasia and Gershwin's `An American in Paris`. The opening theme acts as a nucleus to the whole piece. A bridge back to the main theme is in the form of a flute cadenza which contains quotes from 'Etude Fantasia' and 'An American in Paris.'
