I'm currently working on a number of projects including:

​

Septimal Kleisma - a microtonal piece for Trumpet, Voice, Percussion, 4 keyboards (playing Logic Sculpture) & Strings.  The piece is fully planned and now being orchestrated,  It will last approximately 6 minutes.

​

A recording of my Saxophone and Piano piece from 1977 which has some very interesting harmonies and a moody compelling sound.  (The original version was for Cello and Piano and was performed in the Picture Gallery at Royal Holloway College in 1977, with Lindsay Chalmers on Cello and myself on Piano.

​

I'm in the early stages of planning a Cantata based on the Welsh National Anthem 'Land of my Fathers'.  (My father and his fathers before him were all Welsh although I was born in England and have lived here most of my life).

​

I'm also trying out ideas for a new Orchestra piece with soloists - provisional title: '19 Hits, Grooves and Solos' which will feature guest soloists on Electric guitar, piano, flute, saxophone etc.  This is in the very early stages and has not yet reached the level of planning where I can be certain of its completion !
