In a very short space of time, "Strike" was written for the Arco String Quartet for a performance at the Crescent Arts Centre, Belfast on 02/10/2016. This is a live recording from the concert. Hope you enjoy!

With You, Without You

Recently completed choral arrangement of Snow Patrol's massive hit, 'Chasing Cars'. 
It hasn't been recorded with a choir yet so you'll hear flutes allocated to the soprano lines, clarinet to alto and bassoon to bass.

You can find the sheet music at SMP below if you're interested :)

Blight for String Quartet (Final Section)

A short news theme quickly pulled together for a project.

News Theme

Freelance composer, arranger, conductor and teacher. After obtaining a BMus (Hons) in 1996, awarded a PhD in Composition from the Ulster University in 2002.
Along with many pieces for choir, I have had work performed by the Ulster Orchestra, Gemini Ensemble, Arco String Quartet, HuuJ Ensemble, Philippa Davies, Anne-Marie O’Farrell and Brian Keenan.
Most recently I conducted the world premiere of my hour-long work ‘18’ for soprano, women’s choir, narrator/poet, string quartet, piano and tape, at the Crumlin Road Gaol. Commissioned by Belfast City Council, it honoured the activism of local suffragettes. Email: acheson.keith@gmail.com
