Telos, from the Greek meaning "an ultimate aim or goal", is a work for brass band. Composed in 2019, the piece reflects the changes I faced at the time when I made the decision to leave my studies at Salford University and transfer to RWCMD to study composition.
I used the piece to audition and gained a place in the composition department. Due to the pandemic, the piece was not performed live and existed solely as a Sibelius play-out, until I submitted the piece for the NYBBGB's Young Composers Competition in 2022. I placed in the top 5 and my piece was highly commended by the panel. Dr Bob Childs liked the piece so much, that he asked to put it in the RWCMD Brass Band concert. As one of his conducting students, he also gave me the honour of conducting the band in the World Première that took place in the Dora Stoutzker Hall, RWCMD, Cardiff.

During the production of Screens Have Ears (2025), I found it quite difficult to find creative inspiration on other projects. However once I took a break from writing on other projects, the inspiration started to come back.

New Horizons is my way of saying goodbye to the people that I have met and the places that I visited whilst living in Cardiff for years since I will be moving to London to undertake my postgraduate studies. The piece is inspired by my older works such as Outlines, which highlights the desolation of walking around the city at night. Whilst this track is quite somber in tone, it is also hopeful about new opportunities and experiences.

To everyone who supported me in Cardiff, as well as those I've met along the way, I will miss you all so much and hope everyone has the future they desire.

San Giorgio Maggiore at Dusk-Symphonic Poem for Orchestra

Kaleidoscope is an ambient soundscape meant to represent the transition between the REM stage of sleep and waking up in the morning.  I began writing this track back in November as an experiment with modal harmonies as well as a way to de-compress and find comfort from the anxiety I was feeling at that point in time. The piece is meant to represent floating above clouds within a dream-like setting. I'm  working on some new tracks and hopefully trying to get back in a more regular posting schedule of music.
