Matthew Harris

Matthew Harris’s music has been called “smart and harmonically pungent” while “lively, engag-ing and lighthearted” (The New York Times) and “Joyously eclectic” (Choral Journal). Major choral works include the cantata, A Child’s Christmas in Wales (Dylan Thomas) and Oceanic Eyes (Pablo Neruda). Harris’s a cappella works, such as the award-winning Shakespeare Songs, Books I-VI, have become staples of the repertoire and been recorded several times.

ĒRIKS EŠENVALDS

For me, harmony is most important – how it flows and becomes a new harmony. The melodic line is secondary. Perhaps this is because my ear is trained primarily to perceive harmonies. Nevertheless I don’t want to write simple music . . . it is important for me to create sounds that I truly feel. I conclude that I am constantly changing, searching for new paths, but absolutely not, once having found them, mass-producing them.

Ēriks Ešenvalds

Born in 1977 in Latvia, Ēriks Ešenvalds is an original and sought-after voice of the Baltic music tradition. Commissioners have included the Latvian Radio Choir and State Choir ‘Latvija’, the Britten Sinfonia, Trinity College Choir Cambridge, Temple University (USA), the Boston Symphony Orchestra and City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. His work is recorded on a number of CDs. Ēriks Ešenvalds is a former Fellow Commoner in Creative Arts at Trinity College, University of Cambridge.
