And with this coming together…. we grow apart
Emily de Gruchy, a contemporary composer from Jersey, creates work rooted in aleatoric and minimal music. Her album features chance-driven pieces, including “Variation Two,” inspired by Andriessen’s Worker’s Union and built from four notes shaped by random processes.

Testimonials
It was a valuable learning experience to collaborate with Ethan when composing one of my earliest Trumpet compositions. He was coherent and honest about the ‘Dos and Don’ts’ of scoring for the Trumpet, and his openminded approach made the whole process very efficient.

Ethan is an exceptional musician who brings projects to life with his versatile, creative, adaptable playing. He consistently delivers high quality performances and elevates the music he works on. Ethan is professional, reliable and easy to work with. Ethan sounds fantastic when working with sheet music or by ear, sounding great across a diverse range of genres and styles. I’ve worked with Ethan in the studio and at main stage festival gigs. He’s easily one of my favourite musicians to work with. Everything sounds better with Ethan playing on it!
— Ned Dylan
Ethan showed great enthusiasm for the piece I had commissioned him to play, as well as patience and flexibility in the face of the scheduling difficulties. It was a great pleasure to have his professionalism onboard, and I hope to have the chance to soon hear his trumpet once again!
