I am thrilled to announce that the full album \u2018Of Mountains And Fields\u2019, which consists of the War Suite and the Cerqueto Suite, is available for advanced orders \u2013 release date 23<\/strong><\/span>rd of October! <\/strong><\/p>\n

It was recorded using orchestral samples combined with my solo flute, no AI in sight.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The War Suite is based on events of the First World War. Love, loss, battle and camaraderie, the suite follows a young man through it all as another face in the crowd of soldiers. It\u2019s a period that has always resonated with me because my great uncle Jack was at one point the oldest living British veteran of WW1.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cerqueto Suite I wrote as a thank you to the people of Cerqueto, a village up in the mountains in Abruzzo Italy that I first visited in 2018 with Marco Lo Muscio when we played at the start of their amazing ‘Living Nativity’. My wife Katrin and I have been invited back by Angelo and friends several times. I wanted to show our gratitude by writing this suite of pieces based on scenes around the village including the Gran Sasso mountain at dawn, the Church of Saint Reparata and the sheep fountain.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
