A lot of Final Fantasy, but also Sonic, Pokémon, and others.
A lot of Beatles, but also various other artists in disparate genres including ELP, Massive Attack, and Macintosh Plus.
Some themes from British TV programmes, some Dan and Phil stuff, the sound of a modem.
Reharmonisations and descants for hymn tunes, some psalm chants based on weird inside jokes from my undergraduate days.
A few piano reductions, some playing about with instrumentation/time signatures.
Arrangements of a few carols.
Cornish and Breton stuff, plus some other music associated with Cornwall that isn’t necessarily traditional.
I’ve been composing music since I first sat at a piano, and since around 2010 I’ve mostly focused on arranging, transcribing, and orchestrating things. In these pages you’ll find lists of all my work in this domain over the years, with links to sheet music and MP3s for some of them. The older ones, in most cases, are less good.
Piano covers of badass songs. Free sheet music!

Cornish traditional music has its origins in the jobbing tunes of the past. Tunes that were used to lead feast day celebrations, the procession of combatants to Wresting tournaments, accompany dancing or simply street and pub entertainment. They were adapted from and to other genres and could become connected to and disconnected from songs and ballads. It is a living tradition and many new tunes have been added to Cornish session and dance tune repertoire in recent years but there remains a core that takes us back to the crowders (fiddlers) and horners of the 19th century and beyond.
