about

Counting - music for Strings Electronics and Percussion, MSEP 6 - my 40th album. A Sister album to MSEP 2 Count Out - The Red and the Blue Standing Cellos on their respective covers. Music for Flute, for Cello and another piece in my Nono Series.

"Beguiling" - Professor Joe Pignato - American Percussionist and Composer - 4th August 2015.


‘Flortis - Rh 190’

An Experimental piece for flute.

‘Counting 1 and 2’ - Rh 191 and 192,

The two headline Pieces - for Cello and electronics. – Abstract Expressionism for strings. Counting 2 is a landmark piece for me, with its sonority and Rhythm. It featured on the Demerara Records release - 'This is Tomorrow Calling.’ A three disc sampler of Contemporary, music. Jim Tetlow and I designed thestriking Daisy cover. They say – ‘you make the music you most want to hear’ - and I did.

‘Nom e Nono - Rh 239’

Another piece from my Nono series - like the Particulate Pieces. it has that canonic fragment from Nono embedded deeply in it.

Built with a Canonic fragment from Nono, the Nono series are a set of Pieces, scattered across my New Horizon Group and beyond. They wrap themselves around the progress of the other big series in the group – The Integral Percussion series, crossing my established Genres. So, I define a ‘Series’ as a thread that can cross my established Genres as a ‘Crosscurrent.'


An early reorganization of my music research interests had defined my music into dedicated sets of Albums. This way things of a kin got heard together - as one type of album or another - by Genre - or Tranche as I styled them. In this Case Music for Strings, Electronics and Percussion or MSEP - basically Electro acoustic music with Orchestral Instruments. MSEP by Convention.

Beginning as a percussionist my first 7 albums are for Drums of various kinds, Drum music or Dm, my first area of research interest or Tranche. I soon realised there was a second area of percussion, as a generality over a specialism - percussion on anything other than Drums, MPm. The third of five was the Phase music, realised by tape looping and timing, Phm. The fourth, a genre of Electro Acoustic composition, Music for Strings, Electronics and Percussion. Last of the five is Electronic music - Music taking the longest processing detour from an original acoustic source.

Albums number 28 to 58 form my second big publishing project or Group - the 'New Horizon' - built on the foundational 'Blue Cherry' Group - where I had introduced my 5 areas of research interest, as Blocks of dedicated albums. Now in a new air I felt free to just reel them of as they came. Exploring like a man with a Time machine - where these five Genres, or Tranches, might lead me.

There are 10 MSEP albums in the New Horizon Group, MSEP 4 - 13. MSEP 4 ‘Particulate’ – the first three pieces in in my Nono Series - after a single fragment from Nono. MSEP 5 ‘Klavierstuck 1- 3,’ begin the other big series in the Group – the Integral Percussion Series - coupled then with another Nono piece. MSEP 6 ‘Counting’ is a sister album to MSEP 2 ‘Count-out.’ MSEP 7 ‘Nonoquinox’ [pronounced No No[K] Qi-nox presents two severe settings of the Nono fragment for strings - the Trio e Nono and Nonoquinox. MSEP 8 ‘Very Quiet Music’ is ‘a music that for the most part would be as quiet as possible, a Very Quiet Music but . . .’ MSEP 9 ‘Uranic Phase’ – is music for bowed Electric Bass and Electronics. MSEP 10 ‘Sonatabass’ - a display piece in four movements, coupled with ‘The Logic and the Apple – both for Bowed Bass. MSEP 11 ‘Sonata for Prepared Piano’ has four pieces ending with the Sn for Piano prep. MSEP 12 ‘Algorim’ has two works for Marimba and one for Electronic Cello – ending the Integral Percussion Series. Lastly MSEP 13 ‘Turing’ with two pieces in my Nono Series – Particulate five and Turing Boogie Woogie.

The DCM album numbers list volumes in a [for the most part] chronological edition - the ‘DCM Broadhurst Edition’ - Prepared for the British Library in 2019. The volumes or albums themselves were actually released as and when it was possible. The Edition though, was planed from the start to stand on the 'foundation Stone' of the Blue Cherry group.

The Rh catalogue, numbers my individual works in order of Completion.
