New Website is up (Ben Clapton, Violinist and Composer) - put the finishing touches on and uploaded it today.

I'm performing my Suk at Concert Practice on Thursday. I'm borrowing a MiniDisk recorder and mic to record it, so I can see how I went, and so I can finally put a recording up on my website. I'm looking forward to it, because I've performed this piece before and know that it's good. I really like the Suk. I'd like to be able to say that Suk is my speciality but I've only played one piece. Oh well, there's still time. I'd really like to play all four pieces for my recital, but I guess that'd take up almost half of my 45 minute recital... a bit much for just one composer.

Ben, I'm working as an editor now and I see a couple of corrections that you could make in the text of your website. If you're interested, please send me an email. (I helped Peter Ferreira with this.) The content of your website is great, and it will be even better after you add the audio. Good luck on your recital. I'm sure you'll sound great.
