This is where I chronicle my journey as a composer. You can expect a variety of insights, musings, questions, answers, discoveries, analyses and lessons learnt. Please feel free to leave comments or ask questions, remembering that this site is intended to be a courteous and child-friendly space.
I seem to have been doing a lot of composing but without making much progress, mainly because I’ve hit a stumbling block with T128 (which now has the working title The Chase). So I put it aside for a while, and as a result I am now swimming in ideas for new pieces! Which has meant the last few weeks have been about finding a focus and purpose.
I’ve spent the last few months finalising my first three books and getting this website ready – and now, here we are! I’m delighted that you’ve chosen to visit. I hope you find something interesting/thought-provoking/to your liking, and that you visit again soon. I’m going to aim to keep these entries regular, concise and focused, with the odd in-depth spotlight on a particular composer/piece/style, etc. If there’s anything about writing music that you would like me to look into, or have any questions, just let me know. Let’s get started…
