About the music
A ten-minute work for solo guitar, premiered by Matthew at the Classical Guitar Retreat on the Isle of Cumbrae, Scotland, in July 2022. Its movements include What Time is Now and The Promise of Something New; Matthew later arranged The Promise of Something New for guitar ensemble.
Its movement What Time is Now was re-imagined for violin, guitar, piano and double bass by the Belgian group Ensemble Dre, who premiered that version at the Classical Guitar Retreat in St Andrews in 2025.
What people are saying
“Every so often, you come across a piece, or in this case a set of 3 pieces, that knocks you sideways!”
Chris Dumigan, All Classical Guitar
“Anyone who performs these in concert will firstly have to be a wonderful player, but secondly and most importantly I would love to hear the audience’s ovation at the end. What a set of pieces!”
Chris Dumigan, All Classical Guitar
