Composition Performance
A quick piece, ‘chase scene through a busy market’ played live by a schools orchestra…
Chase through a busy market by duryloveridge
Quick! Take my picture!
I love ice-skating, but I can never work out why everyone’s so eager to take blurry pictures on their mobiles instead of just skating…
Matchbox Twenty on Cello
I’m a big Matchbox and Rob Thomas fan, and a couple of months ago I couldn’t resist playing around with this fantastic song.

Composing for Film
I recently took part in the Faber Media Academy with cellist Phillip Shepherd.
Below is the result…
Builders’ Tea
So, I’m in the queue at the garage the other day, and two builders are in the queue behind me. Both are around 6′ in height, and have that ‘sturdy’ builder’s look – you know, that one that only builders have that manages to be part cowboy (I think its the boots), and part Victorian chimney sweep. I’d noticed one had been perusing the chocolate biscuit stand as I’d walked in.
So, anyway, without turning around this is what I hear:
Builder 1: ’Hey, what you got there… two chocolate bars?’
Builder 2: ‘Yeah. I skipped lunch. I don;t do it often, so I don’t think it’ll make a difference to my waist’.
Builder 1: ‘Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone’.
The thing is, it came across less cowboy builders, and more Brokeback Mountain…
And finally, the star
Just so I didn’t miss out on the festive season entirely, a quick photo. It’s before twelth night, right?
