I literally wrote this song without having any intention of writing it at the time! I was just fiddling around with the piano and out of nowhere, i was writing another song. It felt so right at the time and I knew almost instantly that it had potential. I hope you like it as much as I liked writing it! :)

Wait And See

So here is my finished recording of 'By Your Side' that I wrote a few months ago and will be featured in my upcoming EP! Huge thanks and gratitude to Kye Voce who arranged and recorded it for me :). Please share it around and I hope you like it!

By Your Side

I haven't really uploaded any recordings of my classical performances...so I thought i'd share my latest performance assessment at Surrey University :).

1. Susse Stille, sanfte Quelle by G.F. Handel
2. Se tu m'ami, se sospiri by Pergolesi 
3. Sweeter than roses by Purcell

Many thanks to Maureen Galea for the piano and Kim Bourlet for the violin accompaniment! 

Performance Assessment Year 1 Semester 2

Here's a little optimistic song of mine I wrote one day...for the past few years I have discovered that life's rich tapestries are only a small hurdle in life, and that you shouldn't let them stop you from pursing your dreams (little inspiration there ;D)

Alive

Hello all! Here is an original song of mine, recorded in Studios 1 and 2 by Tonmeister Wes Hicks at the IOSR, University of Surrey. The vocals and piano are performed by myself and a HUGE thanks to everyone else who was involved: 

Violin and Guitar - Kye Voce
Drum Kit - Wes Hicks
Cello - Lizzie Lewis

Enjoy!

Sound The Trumpet.mp3

These pieces were performed for my recital assessment at University. Very technically and demanding to sing but they were so much fun! I hope you enjoy them :) 

'Una Donna a quindici anni' - Mozart & 'Del los alamos vengo madre' - Rodrigo (Live)

Here is one of my most recent pieces. Check out my recorded video of this song on YouTube as well! :)

For Another Day Or More

Another song that I wrote :). Hope you like it!

Is It You Or Me

This is a 'feeling good' song that I recently wrote based on help and support towards problems that occur, regardless to how big or small, whether they're friends, family or even someone who you aren't close to. We are only human and sometimes we need a little boost now and again to raise our spirits! 

Stay Alight

My name is Sophy Purnell, I'm 20 years old, currently live and study in Guildford, Surrey and I am a singer/songwriter and composer. For now I have uploaded my songwriting pieces that focus on a pop and acoustic genre that I hope you will like :). Keep up to date with any new tracks! x
