Onyx Noir by Onyx Brass out on May 18th

This Friday sees the release of a new album by Onyx Brass on NMC Recordings. It features the music of jazz musicians, including my piece ‘The Mighty Pencil’, commissioned by the group specially for this record. The piece is dedicated to the victims of the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris in 2015.

I will be making a cameo appearance with Onyx Brass at the Vortex on June 5th to launch ‘Onyx Noir’ and they will be playing my piece again a few days later at Wigmore Hall on June 8th.


More info on the album can be found here, along with snippets of all the music (other composers include Kenny Wheeler, Jason Rebello, Gwilym Simcock & Liam Noble).
