Three Snippets for Four Saxes is a short entertaining work and concert stocking-filler - lasting only 6½ minutes. The three movements are: Flourish, a march-like fanfare with a suggestion of toy soldiers, a deeply felt Love Song as an unexpectedly emotional core, and Dislocated Rag to finish with a smile - ragtime with recurring 7/8 bars thrown in to trip up the dancers! Dislocated Rag is based on the composer's music for the 1984 mystery film The Case of Marcel Duchamp about the famous French Dadaist artist. Dedicated to The Fairer Sax, an all female quartet who gave the work its first performance in 1987 at the Marlborough Arts Festival, this piece makes for an entertaining addition to the saxophone quartet repertoire.

Though the composer had yet to pay his first visit to Italy, romanticized thoughts of the country pervaded his mind as he wrote Trio Romantico. Images of the Tuscan countryside shimmering in a haze of midsummer sun are conjured in the first movement Invocazione, a love of courtly Renaissance art inspired the antique dance-like nature of the Intermezzo, and the yearning feelings of the final Romanza are those of a composer never truly at home when not surrounded by ancient art and architecture. The premiere of Trio Romantico was given by Willemijn Steenbakkers (violin), Gemma Kost (‘cello) and Alexander Rider (harp) at the Sounds New 2010 Contemporary Music Festival held in Canterbury in May 2010.

Two Portraits are musical pictures of the composer's erstwhile partner harpist Elizabeth Jane Baldry's sons, composed in 2003 when they were in their early teens. Edmund was serene, loving and spiritual, a cathedral chorister and sensitive harpist.  Alex, also a chorister, was by contrast energetic and extrovert - a true bringer of joy and happiness, he played the French horn and was given to spontaneous jazz improvisations on the piano. The two movements are therefore contrasting melodic pieces, the first serene and lyrical with the opportunity for some legato playing, and the second unexpectedly lively and jazzy and a chance to let the musical hair down!

Two liltingly romantic waltzes, the second marked Gently Swinging. The first is based on a short ballet sequence on Oscar Wilde's The Nightingale and the Rose, composed for The Rose of Puddle Fratrum, an episode of the ITV childrens series Dramarama in the late 1970s. The work is an example of late twentieth century French-influenced romanticism, with a gentle jazz feeling in the second waltz and no reference whatsoever to modernist musical trends. It is extremely grateful to play and always pleases audiences. For secondary schools, colleges, conservatories and professionals.
