John Glenesk Mortimer, composer and arranger

I specialise in composing and arranging all types of music to order. I come from a classical background, but am also at ease in many light-music styles.

My first real composition, aged 12
 
 

My first setting of The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, aged 14.

I have recently finished a completely new setting, for baritone, youth chorus, symphony orchestra and youth ensemble, due to be performed in Switzerland in 2011.

 

A string trio from my crazy avant-garde period at college. It took me a few years to work out that this wasn't my natural style at all! Note the silly quarter-tones.....not to mention the barlines which don't coincide between parts....
