Some of my pieces have been recorded and are available to listen to online.

Berry Hill

I wrote Berry Hill in memory of Iain McGillivray.  It was premiered  by the Fitzwilliam String Quartet on March 18th 2020.  They played it twice that night;  this is a recording of the second time.  The audience collection funded a piece for next year;  my piece came free to ensure we still had a Walthamstow premiere in 2019-20 season!  

 

Many thanks to the Fitzwilliams for allowing this recording to be made.

O’r Galon (Welsh for From the Heart) is for unaccompanied sackbut (early trombone) with drone - any musician will know what that means.

Stronghold

Written for Malachy Robinson, Stronghold  is for unaccompanied double bass. 

During 2019 I wrote Vender, an unaccompanied violin solo for Miki Takahashi.

This recording was the 'lockdown' premiere.

A Distant Kiss

Written for Lucy Russell, A Distant Kiss is just another string quartet piece

I wrote Daalamist during 2020 for Adam Romer on viola, in memory of Gustav Clarkson. Premiered online here.
