Michael James Arman Brough (1960 July, Leeds) is a British organist, lawyer and composer. He has written songs for voice and piano, usually to German texts; a thirty-minute sonata for bass clarinet and piano; and a quantity of other material, mainly for church use. From 1973 to 1978, he was organist of St Paul's King Cross in Halifax. In 1980, he became Leeds University Chaplaincy organist and played there until 1982. Since 1987, he has been at Holy Trinity Sloane Street, London. Since 1988, he has practised as a solicitor in south-east England, lately in Buckinghamshire. Michael Brough's songs, mostly in German at the time of writing, are in an expressive, tonal style that makes use of a richly romantic harmonic palette. Over 85 Lieder to texts by Goethe, Morgenstern, Celan, Eichendorff, Nietzsche and many others have been written and a number of them favourably performed in England, Switzerland and Germany. |
