So excited to hear my oratorio, ‘The Farthest Shore’ tonight. When Ben Kaye (fabulous librettist) and I wrote it in 2013, we had no idea that it’s subject matter - two young refugees being scorned and rejected - would become so pertinent and important today! It’s final chorale is one of the most Life-affirming things I’ve ever written.

Tonight’s Concert is sold-out and has been for some while. So, if you don’t have a ticket, you’ll miss it! ... See MoreSee Less

THE most amazing performance of my music last night in Aix Cathedral. What a spiritual journey it was! Thank you, thank you, thank you to the wonderful University of Delaware Choral Academy Choir, the orchestra, our soloist, Michael and of course the fabulous, Dr Paul D Head who guided the whole performance with wonderful technical control and total emotional power. Many, many moments of true wonder especially, ‘Drop, Drop, Slow Tears’ which had such fabulous poise and space; ‘O sweetest Jesus’ which brought me to tears, and THE most epic ‘Alleluia’ in the finale of my ‘Crucifixus’ which almost brought the huge ceiling down on us! The audience were spellbound - many people were in tears, many were cheering and there was a truly fabulous atmosphere! What a gig! ... See MoreSee Less

A great honour indeed to be part of the London Mozart Player’s 70th anniversary season with the first English performance of my, Symphony No 2 ‘Sacred Places’ at the fabulous JAM on the Marsh Festival in Kent next month. Also, a real pleasure to be sharing the concert with the world premiere performance of the festival commission, ‘Silent Shadows’ by James Aburn. This is a truly wonderful new work for strings by James and I’m sure a piece that will be snapped up by string groups everywhere. The concert is almost sold out! So exciting! ... See MoreSee Less
