LIST OF WORKS 

This catalogue is not exhaustive but a brief glance will show that I am essentially a miniaturist and that I nearly always write for particular performers on specific occasions.  I enjoy a challenge and like to be useful.  Several of these titles were designed for my own recital work; some originated as commissions, arose from necessity or were written to fulfil educational commitments; others were personal gifts or intended for private performance; and a handful may be classified as late-flowering (and possibly over-ripe) juvenilia, but I am still rather fond of them.

Antony Hopkins – a portrait (Divine Art DDA21217)
This little jeu d’esprit is founded on a rising chromatic motif spanning a perfect fifth, which is heard at the outset on the bass recorder (paying homage to the shakuhachi) and later echoed by the soprano. The figure in augmentation forms the bass line of the piano part – reversed half-way through the piece – over birdsong in the right hand, and makes a final cheerful appearance on the sopranino recorder as the frogs and skylarks exchange their songs in the last bar.
