Jesu Joy of man's desiring for trumpet and piano (Bach, arr. Peberdy) (Jun 2017)
The trumpet simply plays the chorale melody. I needed this simple arrangement for someone, so here it is!
Prince of Denmark (Clarke) and Trumpet Tune (Purcell) for trumpet and piano / organ
Simple single-page arrangements that I needed, useful to give trumpeters for weddings. Just the of "well-known bits"

Music for Canterbury Tales (1990)
Incidental music written to accompany "Canterbury Tales, Chaucer made modern". Krummhorns, recorders, tambourine, guitar, synthesiser, and 4 track recorder were used in its first performance at the Norbury Theatre, Droitwich, in Sept 1990.

Longing
A Love song: Longing (September 2016) (piano solo)
Written for a composition competition run by the pianist William Howard for his "Love Songs Project" (http://www.williamhoward.co.uk/love-songs-project-1) in 2016. Although I didn't win, it was a very enjoyable piece to compose and play. Essentially a romantic, haunting theme and variations, but with a contrasting, slightly charged middle section. This piece has not yet had its first public performance, so you could have the premiere - please let me know if you do! Video
CasualSparkPianoSolo Casual Spark Rag, arranged for piano solo.
The rag proved popular, so I arranged it for 2 pianos and also did this arrangement, for solo piano. (Sept 2014)


Casual Spark Rag Casual Spark Rag, for 2 accordions
My son, Caspar, was enjoying rags, so I wrote this one for him and his friend to play. For 2 Accordions (Caspar & Lukas)  Sept 2014
Black & White Accordion orchestra
Black and White Rag (Botsford, Arr. Peberdy), arranged for accordion orchestra, Sept 2014
Having arranged this piece for 2 pianos, and the fact that my son plays in an accordion orchestra, this was a logical step to take. (Sept 2014)
The Entertainer (Joplin, Arr. Peberdy) arranged for accordion orchestra, Sept 2014
The same goes for this as with the Black and White Rag.
Christmas pieces Stille Nacht / Silent Night (Easy piano)
A simple arrangement of this Austrian carol for a piano pupil of mine. It seemed to be very playable for other pupils, so I've decided to share it here. With an optional 2nd piano part.

Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring piano solo (Bach arr. Peberdy) (June 2017)
