Richard Laurence is a composer of neoclassical and ambient piano music with a colourful background in post-rock and electronic studio projects. Working under the name, ‘Gifts From Crows’, Laurence released his debut album, “Holding a Thought Forever”, in February 2021, a hauntingly beautiful collection of piano instrumentals augmented with samples, electronics and string arrangements. This was followed by the E.P.s ‘Northern Film Orchestra Sessions' volumes I and II. The 2nd Gifts From Crows album, ‘Stories in Slow Light’ is a collaboration between composer Richard Laurence and photographer Helena Whitten. The project consists of 12 pieces all inspired by and composed around the themes depicted in Helena’s photographs. The music of Gifts From Crows has been featured in Headphone Commute, Stationary Travels, York Calling and CutCommon Magazine. It has also been played on Classic FM, Scala Radio, Jorvik Radio and featured on the official Spotify playlist, Classical New Releases.
