He toured the USA and performed his own music at Madison Square Gardens, all before he was twenty. Like many other classical composers in the modern age, he also accepted commissions for TV and film music, and became best known for his work in this field until the turn of the millennium. His largest scale concert works at this point were the Oratorio “Plague And The Moonflower” (to a libretto by artist and Renaissance Man, Ralph Steadman) and his “Concerto Antico” written for guitarist John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra, which has gone on to become a popular favourite both on the concert platform for guitarists all over the world and within The Classic FM Hall of Fame in the UK. Alongside rave reviews for his Concertos for Recorder Virtuoso, Michala Petri and for the legendary Violist, Roger Chase, Richard also won a British Academy Award for his score for Alan Bleasdale’s epic political drama “GBH” and has four Ivor Novello nominations under his belt. Beyond that, it’s fair to say that his film and TV scores are too numerous to mention here, although last year he was honoured with an “Annie Award” for his score for the animated picture “The Little Prince”, which he co-wrote with his long standing friend and collaborator, Hans Zimmer, following on from the success of his much praised contribution to The Da Vinci Code movie featuring Tom Hanks.
