Paul
Ayres was born in London, studied music at Oxford University, and now
works freelance as a composer & arranger, choral conductor &
musical director, and organist & accompanist. His music usually
involves words - solo songs, choral pieces, music for theatre productions
- and he is particularly interested in working with pre-existing music,
from arrangements of folksongs, hymns, jazz standards and nursery rhymes
to 're-compositions' of classical works, as in Purcell's Funeral
Sentence, 4A Wreck and Messyah. Commissions for
2006 include a five-part mass setting, an oboe sonata, a new work for
choir and string trio, and his first extended piece for men's voices.
Paul is assistant director of music at St. George's Church Hanover Square,
plays piano for improvised comedy shows and has given many solo organ
recitals in the UK, Scandinavia, Europe, North America and Australia.
