I am a composer and historical researcher living in Stafford, England. I also make videos exploring the “Spirit of Place” with music and images and there are links to many of these on Youtube.

RECENT PROJECTS:

Thomas Anson of Shugborough and the Greek Revival

Antonin Kammell – a Bohemian Composer in 18th Century England

Floyer Sydenham – a forgotten 18th century Platonist

Mignon Harman – perhaps a secret daughter of Sir Edward Elgar

Hidden Music – studies of Musical Theology

Here is a video by Keri Ford, who interviewed me in May 2019. It gives the background to what I do.

Pearl – a film of the 14th century poem adapted from the translation by Simon Armitage
