Mark won a Creative Scotland Award for his project called "Apocalypse", a very brilliant an exciting piece of performance art for solo trumpet, electronics, projections, etc. , and I trust that it's getting many performances these days. An absolutely brilliant player, looking ahead.
I'll ghost for a day or two more and give others a chance to add their comments.

Cool! I do remember Mark talking about that. I first met him when he was guest soloist playing the Arutiunian concerto in 1992 when I was still with the National Youth Orchestra of Ireland. We played in 3 venues where Mark gave 3 stunning performances!!
He was RTE (Irish National Television) Young Musician of the Future then!
