Most of these are studio experiments or live performances. Some are improvisations - either recorded or live. Thanks to all the musicians who have been willing to play my stuff, all weird time signatures and all, for very little or no renumeration. go to page Θ

Free scores & teaching mp3s
Most of my writing takes the form of songs and instrumental pieces for schools and community groups. Please feel free to use and adapt - I'd love to see any adaptations or hear about projects they are used in. Scorch scores are also available for sale on sibeliusmusic.com.
I also write jazz-based pieces for groups, soloists and choirs. These are also available free to use. go to page Θ
