Symphony No.1 for Orchestra and Turntables

Based on a idea Jeremy had in 2003, the Symphony for Orchestra and Turntables was a long time in the writing.

Jeremy first wrote a small scale song cycle "Mix of Emotions" for turntables, violin, cello and soprano, to see if turntablism would fit in a traditional setting. Then after this was seen as successful he embarked on the composition of a full sized orchestral symphony. 

Completed early 2004, the Symphony was selected for orchestral readings by the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra and the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. From these orchestral readings the work was selected to be premiered by the Wellington Youth Orchestra at the Michael Fowler Centre in 2005.

Electric Bass Concerto for orchestra and electric bass

This piece was written for Thomas Botting. It takes inspiration from the great bass players who have moved bass from being a background instrument, to being a key melodic force. Using a range of extended techniques and putting the worlds of jazz and funk bass up again an avant-garde orchestral setting.

Completed in 2007, the work was selected for an orchestral read through by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra in 2009. The solo electric bass part was performed by Nick Tipping.
