The Month Ahead

After a busy October of performances and recordings so November comes around, which signals endless darkness in this part of Northern Scotland! But there are some moments of brightness in this slow decent to winter, not least some performances and premieres to note. After the recent London premiere of Canticum Mariae Viriginis (2021)  the Marian Consort will perform the work four times on a tour of the USA, giving the US premiere in Cleveland on the 08 November. They follow this with performances in Dayton, Columbus and Haverford in a wonderful programme of Scottish music. On the 13 November, the Belgian choir Lassenne Vocale will give the premiere of my new short new piece for choir and tuned wine glasses, Luman in Umbra (2024) in Brussels. Alas, I can’t make any of these far flung premieres, but I can’t complain too much having been to performances in Belgium and Sweden this year. I’ll also hopefully have the first edits of the organ recording to listen to, which is very exciting.
