22.01.2022 Hello friends! These last few months have been incredibly challenging for lots of people, but one of the things that has bringing me great joy recently is that it’s starting to look and smell a lot like spring. The world might be upside down and inside out, but there’s comforting about the seasons continuing to turn over, and new life springing up. A few months ago I stumbled across a Dutch composer called Herman Beeftink on YouTube, who writes beautifully for the flute. This work of his, aptly entitled Spring, seemed appropriate to share at the moment. I’ve put in a few pictures that I’ve taken out on walks in the last few weeks as spring has sprung up around us. Hope you enjoy! Keep safe and well everyone!
22.01.2022 One of the fantastic things about being home is getting to make wonderful music with my lovely mother, Catriona DeVere. Here's Lascia Ch'io Pianga from Handel's Rinaldo, with accompaniment by the wonderful Justin Jacobs.
15.01.2022 Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend! Tomorrow I’m doing a story takeover for the Griffith University Instagram page. If you’re interested in finding out what a day of online study at the Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University looks like for me, head over to @griffithuniversity on Instagram
14.01.2022 A little excerpt from Bach’s St Matthew Passion
04.01.2022 I watched the first act of Carmen a few nights ago, and hearing the piccolo duet in La Garde Montante inspired me to have a go at recording the two parts together. This is such a fun little tune, I hope it brightens your Friday night!
02.01.2022 The Moldau (which is one of the movements from Smetana’s Ma Vlast) has been one of my favourite pieces of music for many years now. The opening flute duet is so beautiful and calming, and something I’ve longed to play ever since I first heard it. It was such fun to record this with the wonderful Rhoslyn Carney, even from a distance. It’s so important to me to find ways to work with others in these unprecedented times. It might be a little different to how we’d usually play together, but there’s something beautiful about sharing music, regardless of how the sharing occurs.
