New Commission: Scenes of Winter
Recently completed a new commission, Scenes of Winter, written for The Albany Singers — a contemplative suite for choir and harp. Comprising four evocative pieces, the work offers an introspective journey through the Christmas season, embracing both its radiant joy and quiet melancholy. Scenes of Winter will receive its premiere performance this December.
DAVID BEAVAN MA. REVIEW 'CAROL OF THE BELLS'
“Darron, I really enjoyed the vigorous performance of your piece last night, very effective. Bass trombone was marvellous. Effective writing and imaginative. Much enjoyed by the audience.”
Mr Andrew Ashwin, FRSM PGDip (RCM) BMus (Hons) (Singing)
"Darron has composed many pieces for the Senior Choir at Leicester Grammar School, and each composition has worked brilliantly in concerts, services and in the rehearsal process. His pieces are stylish and unique, and they always deliver the mood he is trying to create. There are many highlights, one in particular being "Colours". Darron is a fantastic musician and a really great colleague to work with, as he always strives to improve, and works collaboratively with those around him".
