Product Specs
“I wrote Rhapsody in 2000 but it remained unperformed and so I gave a copy to John Orford the bassoonist and Professor at the Royal Academy of Music. Some years later, to my surprise and delight, he contacted me to ask if it could be the set piece for The Florence Woodbridge Prize. On the morning of Monday the 27th June 2016 I went to The Academy where I heard a succession of fine performances, the winner of the prize was David Bennett.” - Gordon Carr
Gordon Carr was born in Matlock, Derbyshire, in 1943. He studied the horn with Barry Tuckwell at the Royal Academy of Music and went on to enjoy a performance career. In 1984 he was invited to become a professor at Trinity College of Music, a post he relinquished in 2003.
Increasingly, composition has taken up his time: he had early success with music for the Locke Brass Consort of which he was a member; Trombone Concerto. written for Don Lusher; Dialogue for Trumpet and Brass for James Watson; and The. Godson for the actor Robert Hardy, premièred on BBC2. Of Prism for Brass and. Percussion, Records and Recording commented, ‘...clearly a composer to be reckoned with.’ He continues to add to the songs, chamber music, choral and orchestral music.
