Sur les Pointes was written for the pianist Herbert Henck, and first performed by him at the London Institute of Contemporary Arts on 29 March 1981.
This is one of a series of pieces in which the composer was searching for a music which would be independent in tone colour, and could be played on any instrument with the appropriate compass. It has been performed by various chamber ensembles, choir and orchestra, keyboard instruments, and an orchestra of wind and solo strings.
Sur les pointes is a ballet term describing the raising of the body on the tips of the toes.
