Below are my six Sheet Music compilations to date, offering a variety of music for choral societies and musical theatre groups.
Two of them, ‘A Better World” and ‘A New Spring’ are Modern, Contemporary Operas dealing with Modern Themes
There are two versions of my Opera ‘A Better World’ .
Here is a review of that original 2013 version
National Association of Choirs (NAC Review 2017) – Extracts – ‘ A Better World ‘
……..’I commend Ray for tackling such a difficult subject and interpreting it in choral form.
……..the cantata is a bold work
.…… it highlights the plight of refugees from the worlds conflict zones.
……..musically there is a relentless drive throughout the piece
……..it would be an interesting, if long, work to include in a choir’s repertoire
……..it highlights the British diversity in choral music.‘
Karl Harper for NAC
