Ok.... so here is my 'official biog'.

Patrick Nunn studied with Frank Denyer at Dartington College of Arts and with Gary Carpenter at the Welsh College of Music and Drama returning once again to Dartington in 1995 to study with the Dutch composer Louis Andriessen. He has recently embarked on a doctoral course at the Royal Academy of Music studying with Simon Bainbridge.

His work is often collaborative based working with a broad spectrum of disciplines including film, theatre, dance and performance art. Momenta, his most recent collaborative venture with choreographer Mikaela Polly, was selected as part of Ballet Rambert's 2005 repertoire. His sensual and dramatic score for Genet's silent film Un Chant d'amour commissioned by the Arts Council of Wales toured the UK in 1998 returning to the Barbican as part of the BITE series in 2003 as an adaptation for piano. In 2002, his evocative score for Concentric Circles' production of Racine's Phaedra ran for over a month at Riverside Studio's.

Patrick has been commissioned by ensembles such as Icebreaker, Piano Circus, The Gogmagogs, The New London Children's Choir, PM Ensemble, Ephyra, Sub Divo and Charlie Barber & Band to name just a few.

His work has gained many prestigious awards including the Gregynog Award 94 for Colour Cycle , the Composing for Children prize as part of the BBC's Fairest Isle festival in 1995 for Songs of our Generation and more recently the RCM Rarescale award 2004 for Into My Burning Veins a Poison.

His interest in music outside the classical arena has brought his work to the attention of artists such as Killing Joke's, Jaz Coleman working alongside Kennedy on the Doors Concerto (DECCA). More recently, Patrick released a new ambient CD Sadhana on his own record label.

Recent work includes 3:5 (solo piano), Gonk (bassoon and sound file), Escape Velocity (accordion and string quartet) and Gaia Sketches for solo cello and live electronics utilising the extraordinary hyper-bow developed at MIT.
