Crowdfunding for the new CD of my songs, Quickening: songs to texts by English and Welsh poets, closes in less than12 hours (at 8pm, 30 March 2017). So far we have had a terrific response with 39 supporters on the Crowdfunder website plus a private donation, making a great total of over £1900 which goes a long way towards the costs of the recording.
The disc will be coming out in September on the Navona Records label, with settings of Rowan Williams, A. E. Housman, Ivor Gurney and Christina Rossetti performed by Anna Huntley (mezzo-soprano), Rosalind Ventris (viola), Johnny Herford (baritone) and William Vann (piano).
Many thanks to everyone who has supported, and please do visit the Crowdfunder page if you have not already.
