Études on sale & Rainbow-Shooting Cloud Contraption in London
You can now buy the scores of my Études for solo violin (2010/2014) from the Faber Music Store. As always, I’m grateful to the peerless editorial team at Faber Music.
The first two of the Études were written for Sarah Hill and first performed by her in Manchester in 2010, while numbers 3 & 4 were commissioned by the London Sinfonietta for Jonathan Morton in 2014. Daniel Pioro will perform the Études in a programme at Trinity College Cambridge in April. I am currently writing Daniel a violin concerto, which he will premiere with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra in 2020.
This month, on the 17th, the young musicians of Junior Trinity Laban are giving the London premiere of Rainbow-Shooting Cloud Contraption for 15 instruments, conducted by Darren Bloom. The piece was written in 2013 on the Aldeburgh composition course run by the sadly departed Oliver Knussen.
