Music

Cheryl's catalogue extends to over 160 works, and addresses all genres from opera, ballet, concerto and chamber music to choral music and song. She is equally at home writing for professional ensembles as she is amateur and community groups (and mixtures of the two!)

Works include From the Beginning of the World, a setting of Tycho Brahe's remarkably prescient thesis on the Great Comet of 1577 (BBC Proms, 2015), Pay Close Attention, a homage to electronic music gods The Prodigy, Earth, Sea, Air, a cello concerto inspired by the migration of swifts (BBC Proms, 2024), a Missa Brevis for Wells Cathedral (2026) and Game On, a duet for piano and Commodore 64 inspired by Game Theory and the crimes of bankers (NonClassical at the Dalston Victoria, 2016).
