About Me

I wanted to create a multi dimensional work, leaning towards the Metaphysical. Shaping the invisible voices the act of creativity and the complexity of time and being.'Quietly luminous, contemplative and assured in its sensitivity, this is an impressive piece, muted and distant like something heard when on the edge of sleep.' - Michael Tumelty reviews the premiere of 'Only the Child Cries' for Brass and Percussion. The Herald 12 March 1994. Composed by Matthew Allsop. Conducted by James MacMillan, RSAMD Glasgow.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1
