Still feeling completely and utterly ethereal after @plastic_bodies last week but should probably talk about it. What I can’t get over is sheer amount of reciprocity in the room. The exchange between performers and audience of known and shared feelings. It was cathartic, empowering… and a lot!
Also, we were funny! You found us funny! 🥳 Do you have any idea how daunting it is advertising yourself as funny when so much of your rehearsal room is navigating difficult subject matter with maximum care? I’m so glad the humour prevailed.
5 years ago this piece was just a seedling in a pandemic and it would take a further 3 years before we realised what it could be, and then 2 more to finish.
So grateful to have collaborators who are able to match my OBSESSIVENESS, delighted to have an audience who GOT IT. Our hopes are high for the future of this piece…

Embodiment, conditioning, femininity… some of the things we’re thinking about here in our 70 min show condensed into 20 seconds for your spectatorship! #cockpitinstatakeover #londontheatre #theatre #opera #contemporarymusic #newmusic #singer @teteateteopera
Made a lot of noise last night with @marianconsort at @chilternarts as my Madrigals for Plants had another outing as part of TMC’s Language of Flowers series. It’s such a privilege to have this group repeatedly take this piece on outings now as it used to just be little songs I’d sing at my own plants and now it’s a whole thing that makes audiences laugh and singers come alive. CHUFFED. #composer #choralmusic
JOYFUL artist today happy to be working with @soundandmusicuk over the next 18 months on a really different direction for me. I’m going to make a solo EP it’s all very exciting because I don’t know how to do that yet. #composer
Back again with your latest primary school bop! This was commissioned by Camden Music @camdenmusic1 for the 2026 Camden Schools Choirs Festival. ‘Hear Me Out’ celebrates progress rather than perfection (and obviously we also shout about the planet and the state of the world a bit).
SHEET MUSIC and BACKING TRACKS available through yours truly or @composersedition #musicteacher #choir #newmusic

Hyper-pop meets hyper-choral. I’ve been arranging SOPHIE (IMMATERIAL) this week and it got a lot of online interest so here’s a score snippet.
