Doesn't appear to be notable enough for its own article, seems to fail WP:GNG and WP:COMPOSER. The only sources I could find were | his own website and a | British Music Collection biography of him, the rest are mirrors. There were also 2? reviews from The Guardian, but at least the other one looked like a passing mention only. Perhaps a redirect to Royal Northern College of Music under 'Notable alumni' or 1974 in British music under 'Births'?

 * Comment: I don't remember why this person is on my watchlist, but here I am, not involved in the article writing. I found a review of a concert in Wigmore Hall (!) - possibly the one you allude to - which tells me the person deserves an article, and the suggested redirects make little sense to me. I won't have time until next week to look further. I added the review and another and the usual places (Discogs, AllMusic, IMDb) to the external links. Feel free to use. - I found now why he is on my watchlist: because I added a link to an ensemble in 2012. - Please add invitations to projects Classical musi and Composers if you haven't already. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:10, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Specific analysis of the available reference material would be helpful. Discussion of what the person has done is not. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Seraphimblade Talk to me 06:36, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. Might meet criterion 1 for notability of composers. "Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition." Seems to be the case with Radius (see Guardian review of the piece, currently on the page). Also works with the London Sinfonietta (see here) (NB-the same link was provided in the nomination above) (and this).- My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  15:49, 29 August 2023 (UTC) PS-Redirect to Royal Northern College of Music may also be OK, I suppose. Just added a source there.
 * Keep based on the commissions for the London Sinfonietta and ensemble recherche, favorable reviews from The Guardian, and passing coverage in a collection of other sources. However the article has a promotional tone and the original creator might have WP:COI, so it should be updated if possible. - Indefensible (talk) 01:51, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
