Publication of ¡Oh Guitarra!
This autumn saw the publication of my second piece for solo guitar, ¡Oh Guitarra! The publishers are Tre Media of Karlsruhe, the same company that released my first guitar work, Nana del insomne, a few years ago. ¡Oh Guitarra! was composed at the request of the Swiss guitarist Christoph Jäggin. […]
Distant Episodes
This is a newly available composition for two pianos. I wrote it over the last year or so, in response to an expression of interest from duoDort in a little piece named Portrait, listed in my catalogue as dating back to 1989, for two pianos, duration three minutes. Not only […]
Maverick alone
Bob Johnson, Delilah and Miranda before the last-named was left on her own Miranda’s life in our midst had a difficult start. She was mistrustful of people, to the point that she would baulk at approaching humans even at feeding time. You had to drop the grain on the ground […]

No answers
No answers means either nobody reads this blog or nobody knows about the cascade of lights. I would believe that I imagined it if K had not seen it too. Never mind. The Farmer came around a few days ago, knight in shining tractor, to perform the annual shearing of […]
A cascade of lights
Last night I reported on the impossibility of feeling fear before the beauty of the Northumbrian night. Well, tonight I did experience something akin to fear, albeit mixed with fascination. The glow was brighter than last night, casting a supernatural heat over everything. The new pony across the road, a […]
