Robin Hood
Verity spent the 2024 festive season working at the Egg Theatre in Bath composing music for their big family show. She worked in collaboration with wonderful sound designer Simon Panrucker.
A day with HOWL
Verity spent an autumnal day with some of the wonderful singers of HOWL in London trying out some new musical ideas. Here are some snippets.
Arch
For much of 2024, Verity travelled around Europe creating ‘Arch’ with Kaleider. She wrote the music for the piece, and in each touring location taught elements to a choir of ‘secret singers’ that joined the performance.
Purity
Verity’s EP passing thoughts is now available to stream on Spotify and a whole bunch of other platforms.
Our friend Paul Blakemore created these visuals to accompany the song ‘Purity’.
