Media Reviews
I reviewed The Oxford Book of Flexible Anthems a number of months ago and welcomed it with open arms. The carol book is equally welcome, and a must-buy for choirs who don't know the size of their forces from one week to the next, or the sort of choir that only gets men for Christmas, as it were . . . What you get here is a generous selection of well-known favourites in easy (and of course flexible) arrangements . . . and a fine sprinkling of new pieces, most of which are highly original and interesting. By no means is this book just for small amateur choirs: there is much for all in its 279 pages. * Music Teacher, October 2009 *
It clearly embraces a wide range of choral abilities and voice permutations and will doubtless appeal to choirs and choir trainers of many stripes. * Choir & Organ, September 2009 *

He now devotes most of his time to composing, editing, and arranging. His music unfailingly appeals to both performers and audiences; he has written for all kinds of choirs, with instrumental works for a variety of ensembles and orchestras.
