This ranges from the world of musical theatre and opera with the epic Revolution The Musical and Hamlyn Town, to the March 2024 Thailand premiere of The Story of the Great White Horse – an introduction to Musical Theatre for young people with narrator. 

His music also ranges from choral and orchestral works, pieces for solo instruments and for education.
