Another Lazy Sunday - May 2012

Thanks to the whole team at Another Lazy Sunday, who filmed this beautifully shot and recorded performance of Right then and there at the Holy Trinity Church in Clapham.

Special thanks to:

Charlotte Ritchie, Melanie Naklha and Daisy Chute for their support and their beautiful voices.

A Music box reaches Tibet!

The Music Boxes have been going strong, and you can track their progress either here or on Facebook.

To celebrate the launch of the album, I decided to work on something a little home-made.

My own modern-day music box. Something that only plays the album, and that you can pass from friend to friend.

The first box started its journey from London on Mon 31st October, and you can find out more here...

New live video

Here's the latest video from the album launch at Bush Hall. This performance of Northern Lights includes the arrangements originally composed by Nico Muhly for the album.

My thanks to Thomas Gould, Gillon Cameron, Ben Chappell and Kate Musker in the string quartet, and George Moore on the Glockenspiel. And most importantly my dear friend Hannah Donat from the Britten Sinfonia, for having made it all happen on the night.

The gig has also had some great reviews:
