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.

Commissioned by the Doelen for Eighth Blackbird, who have performed Garden often the past year and half, I'm happy that it won this award, since composing a piece that might win a prize was the last thing on my mind!
