This is the official myspace page of Jonathan Harvey, run by a dedicated fan.
Jonathan Harvey is one of the foremost British contemporary composers, working at the cutting edge of electronic music.
Recognised the world over for his music, which is a melting pot for Eastern and Western spirituality, producing works of astounding originality and beauty.
As a young man, Benjamin Britten was his mentor and he worked on and with Karlheinz Stockhausen.
Harvey has worked with the cream of the international music community including IRCAM(Pierre Boulez's studio), Stanford University (Professor of Music) and others too numerous to mention here.
"He is a rare spirit, ever in search of the new and numinous" THE SUNDAY TIMES
""Endlessly inventive, Harvey's radiant world guarantees more mind expansion and pumped adrenalin than any contempoary British composer" THE WIRE
Current commissions include "Wagner Dream", an opera for three European capitals, three orchestral works for the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and two pieces for voices and The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
