The flamboyant Carillon Festivo was written in 1999 as a recessional voluntary for the wedding of my publisher Andrew Skirrow and his wife Lucy. Carillon da Festa was written two years later in celebration of a special birthday for my good friend Deborah Venner and is based on the tune 'Happy Birthday'.A recording of Two Festive Carillons is available on the Herald label (released Autumn 2012) under the title Moody Moves (HAVPCD380) played on the organ of Brentwood Cathedral by Stuart Nicholson Organist and Master of the Choristers at St Patrick's Cathedral Dublin.
