Charlotte Bray graduated from Birmingham Conservatoire with First Class Honours. She has won numerous prizes, including the RPS composition prize.

“These six works by a new British composer (b1982) attest a sharp ear and a vigorous imagination...Inspired by the image of hidden dynamism Bray finds in Sizewell power station and its radial treetop power lines, the music’s inventiveness and textural control are unmistakeable.” Sunday Times
