In early 2008 I released a download on my website entitled
The Naked Violin with the aim of making my music available to everyone all over the world, especially those who had never before experienced any classical music. I wanted to remove every possible barrier and so I made the download available free of charge and provided spoken introductions to the music.
This CD follows directly on from
The Naked Violin project and, if you would like to hear my spoken introductions and access the
Naked Violin download pages, please visit my website:

The title
Partners in Time refers to the chronological development of the relationship between violin and piano and the way that composers fell in love with, and responded to, this partnership. The partnership also refers to the players, as it is essential to have a rapport between musicians in order to make the music come alive. The music spans 200 years and is in the format of a recital programme.
