Tickets are now available for the January 24th UK concert premiering my new choral work, "The Christmas Truce" and it would be lovely to see some of you there!
The work will be receiving simultaneous premieres in both Hereford and Nuremburg - I'm going to be in Hereford.
If you would like to reserve or buy tickets (all priced £5) please fill in this form: http://www.christmastrucehereford.co.uk/contact.php
The piece tells the story of the Christmas Truces that took place along the frontline on Christmas Eve 1914. The libretto is made up of speeches, newspaper reports and letters from eye witnesses to the events that saw the troops put down their weapons and meet in No Man's Land to exchange gifts, play football and sing Christmas carols with "the enemy".

The 45-minute work, which is scored for tenor, choir, flute, string quartet and piano, is linked by instrumental variations on "Silent Night".
