A sweet little tune, but be sure to hold the left hand notes for their full values.

This is the second piece dedicated to Ceri Francis and her pupils. It's a good workout for all the fingers, and has a minimalist feel to it.

Today's piece is the first of two dedicated to Ceri Francis and her students. After a kind donation, Ceri asked for some music to be used for a competition within her music studio. The brief was to write something using pedal, with a melancholy mood and a nature theme. So, here is Winter's Silence.

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Philippa Poulton Smith, who made an unusual request - for a song, which could also be a piano solo, on the theme of goodwill being year-round, not just for Christmas. Here's the piano solo version - please see a separate post for the full song!

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by my mum and dad. The title has no relation to the popular carol. It's just my take on the journey of the Kings, with a bit of a swing in their step!

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by my godmother, Brenda Inglis, for her granddaughter Lilly. Lilly is learning the piano, and may not be quite ready to master the piece this Christmas, but I'm sure she'll be able to tackle it next year if she keeps up the practice! ;-)

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Jenny Jones. Here we have a simple rising and falling melody, accompanied by left hand broken chords, which can be hard to stretch, but the sustain pedal can help out here.

Today's piece is kindly sponsored by June Jaundoo. In Candy Cane, I've tried to evoke the feeling of excitement of a child's Christmas.

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Sharon and Vicko. I know marriage isn't eternal joy every minute, but wouldn't that be dull! Hopefully in this piece I've captured all the best bits.

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by pianist Jill Morton, for her mother Helen. This piece is all about creating an atmosphere - what happens between the notes is just as important as the notes themselves!

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Nicola Shergold. Broken chords are shared between the hands, with a melody created by the final note of each sextuplet.

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Jane Fisher, for Simon Mercer. Apparently Simon is not the biggest fan of Christmas. I was tempted to go down the Scrooge / Grinch route, but I know Simon is actually very kindhearted, so Krampus seemed more appropriate. Despite appearing to be a bah humbug, Krampus actually helps Santa, by scaring the living daylights out of naughty children, encouraging them to be good. You have been warned...

Today's piece was kindly sponsored by Sharon Richenberg. The groups of 5 look a bit intimidating at first, but it's really just a case of playing each note one by one. Listening to the mp3 or video should help!

Today's piece was sponsored by Joy Stephenson. Joy has devised titles for many of my pieces, including this one, which I always thought was rather special, so I saved it for an occasion such as this. I hope Joy likes her piece!

Today's piece was sponsored by a cheeky little elf who loves to sing opera. I bet he can't find the incredibly-well disguised opera quote embedded within this piece. It's so subtle...

Today's piece is sponsored by professional pianist Jill Morton. Jill has a very popular and excellent Youtube channel, and tells me that she'll be adding her own performance of Roasting Chestnuts to her channel. I'll update this page with a link to it, and then you can hear the piece as it's meant to be played - I am winging it here!!

Happy birthday to Christian Morris, the sponsor of this piece! This tune has become better known as 'Deck the Halls', but its roots lie in Wales, like Christian's. I hope as a fellow harmony-smith, he enjoys and possibly laughs at my quirky version!!
