This is a short film about how composer Guy Woolfenden came to compose "Mockbeggar Variations".
It is also a peep into the world of a composer (my dad) who has made the leap into composing with the aid of computers using "music notation software".
Wasn't the weather amazing in February?

It's fantastic to see and hear one of my favourite wind band composers here!! I play in an Irish concert band and we've played 3 of your dad's pieces. I love his music.
