If you want autobiography, read an autobiography: these are just a bunch of songs.

But, once, there really was a guy; after a late night at the local bar (they had karaoke: I’m sure someone sang 24 Hours from Tulsa; hell, it might even have been me) I drove the very drunk little fella home. My idea of civic duty. He lived in his parents' basement and was keen to show me the things he loved. Out with a photo album: his motorcycle, his dog, his girlfriend. In that order. Then he took a wizz in a washing machine and passed out. And yet it was a shock when both girlfriend and dog took leave of him.

Dog Song

"They that go down to the sea in ships", an anthem for SATB chorus a capella, was commissioned by St. Thomas's Anglican Church, Huron Street, in memory of Roland Andrews, the Rev. Mark Andrews's late father. The piece received its first performance on Sunday, Nov. 5, 2017, during the course of Solemn Evensong and Devotions, under the direction of Matthew Larkin. This is a recording of that performance. The piece is published by Renforth Music (Catalogue #: TM ACH 931): http://www.renforthmusic.com/works/rmach931.php

They that go down to the sea in ships,
These men see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
For at his word the stormy wind ariseth, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
They are carried up to the heaven, and down again to the deep: their soul melteth away because of the trouble.
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.
So they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivereth them from their distress.
For he maketh the storm to cease, so that the waves thereof are still.
Then are they glad, because they are at rest.

- Psalm 107: 23a; 24-30a

Op. 7: They that go down to the sea in ships (Published by Renforth Music)

A tribute to Edward Elgar. Inspired by a visit to his birthplace, and a hike in the nearby Malvern Hills in the English Midlands. Many thanks to Unitatis Strings for playing this piece.
