Garden of Iniquitous Creatures wins the NFA Newly Published Music Competition



I'm proud to announce that Garden of Iniquitous Creatures (2017) has won the National Flute Association's Newly Published Music competition. The National Flute Association is the largest flute organisation in the world with around 5000 members from 50 different countries.
