Vinyl pre-orders open now: Opening track from the thrilling debut album from the Kingston University Stylophone Orchestra, the project helmed by electronic musician Leah Kardos and co-produced with the legendary Tony Visconti. A mix of original tracks, such as this one, with cover versions that salute the pioneers of electronic music, this is one LP not to be missed by any fan of cosmic electronica... and those little plastic boxes known as Stylophones, as used on David Bowie's Space Oddity.

Glass Wings

An upbeat and optimistic piece in three movements for concert band.
​
This piece was written for and with the Band of the Surrey Yeomanry, with the support of Making Music and Sound & Music, as part of the 2023 Adopt A Music Creator scheme.  It is a tribute to to the way the Band of the Surrey Yeomanry have evolved in repertoire and practice since devolving from their original military background, and the importance of keeping community and leisure time bands alive, even when politicians and financiers fail to see their worth.
​
With upmost gratitude to Michael Withers and all the members of the Band, and Fraser Trainer.

A piece for symphony orchestra

As individuals we believe in our ability to keep going for long periods of time, even through exhaustion or tough situations.

We believe that eventually it will pass and the weight will be lifted, but unfortunately this isn’t always the case.
