"I love the way the guitar and electronics shape-shift. At one point you hear an allusion to classical Spanish guitar, then you're in a radiophonic studio or hearing morse code in a lighthouse" - Sarah Mohr-Pietsch, BBC Radio 3
About:
I am a composer often inspired by text (from poetry and literature to twitter feeds and graffiti). You will find me working happily on vocal, instrumental and electronic music and I especially enjoy close collaboration with performers, which is at the heart of what I do.
Current projects include a collaboration with Lotte Betts-Dean exploring Thomas Hardy's influence on English Art Song and a spin-off project with the Ligeti Quartet which responds to Hardy's poem 'Afterwards'.
