New monodrama for voice, ensemble and electronics A FURY'S CURSES / MALÉDICTIONS D'UNE FURIE to be premiered on 10 May at the Sounds New Festival.


...ne l'aura che trema received the ICMA Prize for Best Work (European Section) at the 2011 ICMC.


'...a soundworld of ghostly resonances and faint musical breaths.'

(Matthew Connolly, The Times)


'Croft vastly expands the world within and without the instrument ... heart-achingly beautiful ... like stepping onto another world ...'

(Tim Rutherford-Johnson)

'John Croft's simply beautiful ...ne l'aura che trema for alto flute and live electronics, and which the former excites the latter into complex and erotic 'tails' of activity of varying detail and behaviour, entrancing.'

(Simon Waters, British Flute Society Magazine)
