This setting of Lawrence Raab's poem 'Voices Answering Back: The Vampires' was commissioned and first performed by Coastal Voices Men's Choir, under the direction of Janet Gaskin.  Approximate duration: 7 minutes.   The text is used by permission of the poet.   Coastal Voices is an unauditioned but very hard-working choir; my commission was to write a work which would be challenging, but feasible for them, and they responded splendidly to the occasion. I made MIDI soundfiles of the individual parts for the singers to rehearse with, and I would be happy to provide these to choirs who plan to perform the work. Voices Answering Back requires a skilled pianist.

The lyrics are the short poem, Lines to a Reviewer, by the 19th century poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. The music is for SATB voices a capella, for either solo voices or small chorus. Duration about 2 minutes. The MP3 Audio Clip is a computer-generated soundfile.

Setting of Rimbaud's mysterious (or possibly tongue-in-cheek) synaesthetic poem Voyelles for mixed choir with 2 soprano soloists (SSAATBB) The top two voices are soloists and the other voices provide the accompaniment. In the poem each vowel is allocated a colour and a strange vision, which are reflected in the music. A version for mixed choir (AAATBarBB) is also available. The sound sample is a performance by the composer of the male voices version. A video of this piece (men's voices version) with words on screen can be found on youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCWS-Qho9ec.

After singing the excellent Britten setting of this traditional song I was moved to write various versions of my own: The choral versions are more sophisticated than the original but different from and possibly rather easier than the Britten arrangement. The voice and guitar version has a more interesting guitar part than the traditional guitar chords. The sound samples are sung by Matthew Curtis of choraltracks.com for the choral versions and by Margaret Jackson-Roberts with the composer on guitar for the voice and guitar version. All three versions are available here: voice and guitar (low alto or high tenor: both versions are in the pdf file) Women's voices (SSA or SMezA) men's voices (TBarB) in D major and in B major (both versions are in the pdf file) videos of the choral versions can be seen here: women's voices https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yumtXSa_o-w men's voices https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxy3opZlBog.
