Composition |
| Ian studied composition at Cambridge with Alan Ridout and Robin Orr, and subsequently with Nadia Boulanger in France. He continues to write music; published works include an anthem for the centenary of Hymers College and choral works for Cumbria Singers, the Abbey Singers and the Carliol Choir. Recent commissions have included a cantata in five movements to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Wordsworth. In 2025 he composed "O Praise the Lord all ye Nations" to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Lancaster Singers. |
