New work for NYMAZ - make music happen - created during the summer and put together by students from across the UK, along with Femmes Fortissimo and tenor horn Siobhan Bates. Featuring ideas from a consultation session with the young musicians - a family argument culminating with a kitchen percussion fight and the tenor horns playing peacemaker at the end. Due to be published by Brookwright Music.
