I came across Jim's work when I was looking for someone to write a choral arrangement for a Tom Jones track. We had captured an amazing take of a song called Charlie Darwin by Low Anthem and I knew I needed someone out of the ordinary; someone with a deep knowledge of ancient music, but who was translating that knowledge into vibrant, current work. Jim's work with Stile Antico gave me the utmost confidence I was talking to the right man. After a couple of chats on the phone, it was time to record. I first heard the arrangement while we were setting up to record at the church, and I was stunned. The recording speaks for itself; one of the most stunning moments in my career. Thanks for being a part of it, Jim
