Mike has previously worked with the likes of Philip Glass, New Order, Joe Duddell, Orbital, David Holmes, Michael Walsh and DJ Helen to create music from poetry. His 10 year relationship with The Cassia String Quartet has also produced the critically acclaimed album “Handwritten Miracles”

“Making music and working with musicians is now as important as writing poems”

Mike will be talking about his love for and the importance of listening to and making music and will share some unheard versions of previous work. He will also share some brand new tracks from his latest collaboration with the Composer and film maker David Sangster..

David was diagnosed with young onset Parkinson’s Disease in 2011, age 29. He now works as a digital creator for Parkinson’s UK and has composed music for independent films such as 'The New Music' (dir C.

“Music has always been at the core of my creative output since I can remember.”

This very special evening promises to be unique and magical.
