'Libera Me' for six voices (2022)

*I am releasing the COMPLETE version of POLEMIC, very soon!* I am a British composer, who has studied composition privately with British composer Peter Nickol https://www.impulse-music.co.uk/peternickol/ (although I am largely self-taught). I have also studied piano (privately) with concert pianist Ekaterina Shetliffe. 
My music contains elements of impressionism, and musical modernism; I have also explored 12-tone composition.
For several years now, I have been developing my own composition technique, which focuses on the liminal area between stochastic and spectral music, which I intend to use in my future compositions.

Composers who have influenced me include Schumann, Chopin, Schoenberg, and Ligeti; however my formative musical inspiration is the music of Debussy.

*My music and poetry is copyrighted.*

VARP is a group of musicians that explore the ancient churches of Gotland. Through immersion in meditative states of musical improvisation, the spaces speak through them, creating sensual portraits and new stories.

Due to the war in Ukraine Swedish and Ukrainian musicians have met on the island of Gotland, a small island in the Baltic sea famous for its medieval legacy and Bergman films. 

In a troubling world the church rooms create a sanctuary away from the noise of the ordinary world. A place for reflection and here artistic expression.

Each album will be dedicated to a specific church where music will be created live. This is an experiment without expectations and disappointments, music is like a journey.

Polina Pohozha - piano, drums, voice, viola da gamba.
Nata Popova - flute, drums;
Richard Hellgren - viola, piano.

Composer, contrapuntist.

I was trained in tradition, yet I stepped beyond its walls. Sound is my language, not to decorate but to liberate. Composer, performer, and listener — one fire, three sparks, inseparable.

I write and compose to uncover what is hidden: the truth buried beneath power, the dignity of the ordinary, the current of awareness that flows through all.

I belong to no authority, only to sound, to truth, to the silence from which all begins. My work is not mastery, but remembrance — a manifesto in every note, every word, every breath.

I am a composer of the 21st century: a studio artist. The studio is my forge, my battlefield, my sanctuary. Machines hum like choirs, circuits burn like torches, cables twist like roots in the earth. Tradition breaks open in this fire — the score turns to light, the instrument becomes the world itself.

To be a studio artist is to seize sound at its rawest, to sculpt electricity and breath as one, to summon the invisible power that belongs to all. Here music is not bound by walls, not enslaved by profit, not tamed by form. It is free, untouchable, unending — a living flame for the century that is ours.

I teach in US higher education (in a STEM field) & am a hobbyist composer writing in a few different styles. I recommend headphones. All of my music is released under a Creative Commons Attribution/Noncommercial license.

My bandcamp page is getting out of date again, but some older albums there can be downloaded for free or for a name-your-own price donation.

If anyone wants to try performing any of this stuff on real instruments please send a message and I can provide scores. Not sure how playable some of it is for human musicians though.

Unsolicited messages asking me to listen to your latest song will lead to you being blocked unless if I know you well and we've interacted a lot.

My music is written without the use of AI.

Hope you enjoy and thanks for visiting!

Composer since 2008, I used to write music in about a hundred projects so far, classically trained professional musician, composition is for me a great source of joy, it is fascinating to be included in projects which require a beautiful collective energy, I hope that my music deposited here will allow me to share with you the enthusiasm that I put in creating them.
Komponist seit 2008, ich habe bisher in etwa hundert Projekten Musik geschrieben, klassisch ausgebildeter Berufsmusiker, Komposition ist für mich eine große Quelle der Freude, es ist faszinierend, in Projekte einbezogen zu werden, die eine schöne kollektive Energie erfordern, das hoffe ich meine hier hinterlegte Musik wird es mir ermöglichen, mit Ihnen die Begeisterung zu teilen, die ich in ihre Erstellung gesteckt habe.
