A relaxing collection of original compositions for flute and piano

Velvet Afternoon is inspired by the music of Erik Satie and other influential classical composers and is richly melodic. The style is distinctly classical but the emphasis is on good tunes with a relaxing contemporary feel.

"Well played and realistically recorded. This is undemanding music for easy listening, but several of the pieces have real staying power."
Daily Mail
"If you like the flute then this is a great example of styles and sounds it can produce. If you appreciate players who brought the flute to the rock world such as Ian Anderson, Ian McDonald, Thijs Van Leer, David Jackson and Peter Gabriel, this album is in your range."

"A wonderful showcase of the man's talent, both as a showcase and a performer."
Alan Hewitt TWRO
Unhurried timeless beauty...wonderful to relax to."
