My predilection with the Baroque has meant that I have few offerings outside that period.  However, I have chosen two of my long-time favourite compositions. Indeed, if I could have written just one piece, it would have been the Barber Adagio - it’s probably the most emotionally intense seven and a half minutes of music that I know. 

I hope and believe I have done them justice.
