When John Williams heard one of Graham's performances of my piece, he liked it a lot and ended up touring and recording it.

I often collaborate with performers, and I don't always take sole credit for compositions, as many ideas come from the musicians I work with. I wrote a concerto that John Williams recorded, but it wasn't originally written for him; it was for my friend Graham Roberts.

I recently wrote a chamber piece for John Williams that includes two guitars, violin, double bass, and percussion, which has been performed multiple times.

John Williams, despite saying he would retire from solo concerts, continues to commission new works and perform, which is great to see.

Collaborating with Graham Roberts was amazing because he had incredible ideas, and we would sit down to discuss textures and chords for improvisation.

I recorded my NAXOS album as part of the GFA prize, and it was unique because I had the freedom to create something that I wanted, rather than what a record company might typically push for.

Currently, I'm working on a solo guitar piece inspired by Joni Mitchell, and another piece for Aniello Desiderio that draws from Italian opera.

I discovered that there was enough hidden Segovia music to create a CD, even though most pieces are short.

It's sometimes strange when other musicians play music I've written for a specific guitarist, but their different interpretations can be just as interesting and valid.
