About

Evelyn's multi media and compositional biography is as diverse as her performing career.

Evelyn has worked on a number of the 'Trial and Retribution'(Linda La Plante) Productions, collaborated with diverse composers such as DJ MJ Cole (Matt Cole), David Motion, Ray Davies from the Kinks, Steve Hackett and has worked with Fred Frith to provide the sound track to "Touch the Sound" - a film featuring Evelyn on the nature of sound.

In front of a mixing desk at Lansdowne Rd Studios, LondonOther projects have included composing the music for the car manufacturer Mazda, which was subsequently paraphrased by comedians due to its unusualness, she has composed songs with the vocalist Bjork, created a totally improvised solo percussion CD "Shadow Behind the Iron Sun" in collaboration with the produced/mixer Michael Brauer which has also led to totally improvised live shows, not to mention compositions for solo marimba, a huge list of arrangements and transcriptions for percussion and a couple of educational books for classroom use called "Beat it!".

Naxos books have just released "The instruments of the Orchestra" featuring Evelyn as the guide. This is available on our merchandise pages.

Recent work includes a collaboration with the Audio Network company which has a number of pieces by Evelyn available for use by the media and use of some of that material in the Peugot 307 advert
