In the Poet’s Garden
I was more than happy to join the long list of composers who have set Shakespeare to music.
Reflections
My orchestral pieces (all too few of them) have until recently been my neglected children, and it has been a joy to bring several of them together into an all-star recording – Reflections.
Marmite
A ‘marmite’ experience is an accepted term in the UK for something that sharply divides opinion.
Recordings in my life
Unlike many musicians, I genuinely enjoy the recording process. Perhaps it’s the composer in me, but when I make music I like there to be, literally, a record of it, warts and all, so it can continue (I hope) to give pleasure.
The Giant Truffle
For several years, my favourite New York restaurant was Giambelli’s on East 50th Street, owned and run by Signor Giambelli.
Composer’s Notebook – The Spectator
John writes for The Spectator, as part of their Composer’s Notebook.
