Nigel Walsh

Church musician and composer

Welcome!

Welcome to my website, which is all about my musical compositions and work with choirs – in particular, the choir of St David’s Church, Exeter (UK), the Exeter Chamber Choir and the Community Choir Ide Aloud. Also featured are the Langford Singers, a group specially convened for recording purposes.

Compositions range from my Requiem (2018) through to a light-hearted ditty celebrating the Community Shop in my home village of Ide, Devon. Somewhere in between are a set of simple Communion anthems Bread is broken and songs from Julian of Norwich In the stillness. These are collaborations with friend and writer Richard Skinner, with whom I have also written Bethlehem! – a Christmas musical for schools and communities.

Finally, here’s a prayer for peace in Ukraine.

Do look around the site – the menu is at the top of each page – listen to the audio/ video clips and contact me if you want to follow anything up.

I hope you will like what you see and hear.
