Me in my new Delorean...
14/4/08
Last year I was involved in making a new film called 'The Oxford
Murders'. I was on a two night film shoot from 5pm to 5.30am (you might remember I was a little tired for school on those days!)
Anyway, the film is now out in cinemas and the trailer is below.
The film stars John Hurt and Elijah Wood (from Lord of the Rings). I play the trombonist in the orchestra when the timpani player gets murdered! Dun Dun Darrrrrr!.....

Over the next few weeks, I will be adding features to the website.
You can still listen to many of the pieces we will be playing this year, plus I will be including many extra links to other websites which tell you everthing you need to know about the piece, composer or even venue of a concert. If you run your mouse over some text and it turns red it is a link to further information
Work has finally started on my solo jazz album, which I am working on at the same time as the classical CD.
It has been a long time coming, but the first mock up track is ready. you can here it here
The album is call 'Betch Botton Dollar' and will be finished some time within the next 50 years.....
