Steven Griffin
Hello and welcome to Griffmusic@Score Exchange.com.
I have a variety of scores here ranging from the very simple (eg "Beginning the Blues") to the very advanced (eg "In Nomine") plus music for use in the classroom (eg "Create a Good Impression").
Biography
Originally from Merthyr Tydfil in Wales, I have lived and worked in Edinburgh for nearly 20 years. I studied Music at Magdalen College, Oxford where I held a Choral Award. I first started to take composition seriously when I began my career as a teacher as I found it difficult to find music which was easy enough for my young choir to learn but which wasn't childish or patronising towards them. As such most of the music I have written - particularly the choral music - was written with young performers in mind though many of my choral pieces have been performed by adult choirs too.
Recordings
I have uploaded mp3 recordings of as many scores as I have recordings of! The majority of the recordings were "live" and used fairly antique recording equipment so the sound quality isn't always brilliant but hopefully it will give the listener an idea of how the music goes.
If you plan to perform any of my music then I am absolutely delighted. Please email to let me know how it goes!
Contacts
Please email with details of performances of my music:- griffmusic@gmail.com I'm always pleased to hear that internet publishing actually works and have had pieces performed as far away from home as the USA and New Zealand. Let me know how your performance has gone!
If you like my music why not "like" my facebook page!!!! Griffmusic on Facebook
You can follow me on Twitter @mrgriffmusic
As I get more recordings of pieces I've written I'll create videos and upload them to my youtube channel. Griffmusic on Youtube
I am currently keeping a blog cataloguing the development of a new choral piece from receiving the text to the first performance. Music in Progress
If you like the music I've written and arranged and would like me to write something for you please get in contact.
