Provisionally my latest projects include a new piece for sax quartet, a new sonata for cello and piano and a new chamber work for the InTransit Ensemble. I am also very keen to revise my violin concerto and am currently in talks with a violinist to perform the revised version. The biggest revision will be of the cadenza.

I would like to announce that I will be updating my website to .com in the next week so please look out for this new change. My final recital is now being moved forward to May 3rd 2007. Sanctuary is confirmed to be played with myself at the piano. This piece will also be played sometime in March as well as a possible performance of the work at the Wales Millennium Centre, so it is getting quite a well deserved amount of performance time over the coming months.
