His film scoring work includes films such as Eternal Beauty, Cheerful Weather and Just Jim As well as being a master of music for TV and Film, Michael releases music as a solo artist. His solo work takes the form of beautiful improvised piano works, as heard on albums like Diary, or via the more lush, grand orchestral work, that you might hear on critically acclaimed releases Entanglement (2015) Tender Symmetry (2018) from via Erased Tapes’ His lastest release, The Hope of Better Weather, is rooted in the piano world but also exists as a bridge crossing into new terrain, including reworks and remixes from the likes of Yann Tiersen, Bill Ryder-Jones and Eluvium And his forthcoming album, Whitsun, is an exploration of the connection between sound and memory.
