It may be Summer, and we might be on our family Summer break in Portland and then the Isle of Wight, but I am typically working on Christmas Carols! Watch this space for "A Holy Heavenly Chime" - a sequence of (probably) 6 settings of Christina Rossetti Christmas texts.

Yes, it may still be August, but church musicians are organising carol services and concert programmes. I have just self-published 4 Christmas choral works from my back catalogue, and these are now available from scoreexchange.com. youtube.com/watch?v=5Scuvf…

And breathe… back from a lovely weekend singing. Did the solo in Piers Maxim The King Shall Rejoice. Added pressure of knowing he was in the audience!

Lovely weekend spent back in Cambridge Clare College, for an Alumni Dinner. The first I've been to, but hopefully not the last! Also stayed with Lawrence Zazzo and caught up on news.

Very much looking forward to a fundraising concert in Great Malvern Priory on Saturday 14th October. The Priory choirs will sing the "Sacred" works, and the Elgar Chorale will sing the "Profane". Elgar Chorale will give the second performance of my "Our Revels now are Ended".

Fantastic, confident, balanced, blended sound from 9 #choristers at the celebration of 50 years of #Swanage Town Council, in Piers Maxim’s ‘Choristers Prayer’. Inspiring, and holding such promise for the future. Lloyd Hatton MP 🇬🇧
