Title: Classical adaptations Post by: David W on February 27, 2008, 10:38:18 AM Hi swarb,
I have really enjoyed the English Fiddler CD of your compositions. Have you ever been approached by any orchestras to record you work in a fill orchestral setting. Peter Maxwell Davies for instance has done some good adaptations of traditional / traditional style Scottish fiddle music over recent years (Farewell to Stromness for one) and I think some of your tunes would sound wonderful fully orchestrated.

In my house its still referred to as the wireless.
