Description
Will Todd was born and brought up in County Durham and studied composition from an early age. Whilst much of his music is based around North Eastern themes, his love of story telling has led to the creation of a number of important dramatic works on diverse subjects ranging from murder in 1960s New York to the ancient Nordic Myths.
His extensive output includes opera, musicals, oratorio, orchestral works and works for children and amateur performers. His work has been featured on Radio 3’s In Tune, Classic FM and the Radio 2 Arts Programme and he has had performances of his music all over the UK as well as in the USA.
In 2001 his opera The Blackened Man (libretto Ben Dunwell) received second prize in the prestigious International Guiseppe Verdi Competition for the Composition of a Lyric Opera in Italy. Excerpts of the opera have already been recorded by The Hallé Orchestra and Choir, and showcase performances of the work took place in the Linbury Studio Theatre, Royal Opera House in September 2002. The first fully-staged production of The Blackened Man was at the Buxton Festival in July 2004.
