about
New Voice (comp. Hewat)
This is the opening of the ‘Making the Connection’ commission, which made up the first ‘New Voices’ series of concerts at the Celtic Connections Festival in 1998. A visionary series developed by Colin Hynd, to highlight the talent for new writing within Scotland. I was very thankful for the opportunity to write a 50-minute long piece, taking in all the influences I had within me. It has yet to be released. The piece was performed in the Strathclyde Suite, featuring amongst eight other musicians; Martyn Bennett and Johnny Cunningham.
I recorded this piece looking out of the window and over the hills of the Scottish Borders, thinking of these two amazing men who I had the pleasure of working with for such a short time, and who affected me and my music so greatly. And thinking on why I hadn’t recorded it properly, when I had the chance. Don’t let your dreams fade away - life is just too short for that.

Rachel is a unique music essence. Her music and voice touch me really deep. I lived in Scotland for 2 years and she is able to bring me back there with her music. Rachel is a wonderful gift to the world.
