“Laura and Lewis have started their collaboration for Glyndebourne’s Young Composer-in-Residence scheme with Belongings, an impressive opera drawing its inspiration from deeply moving human experiences during the refugee crisis, a hot topic of the time and always valid in some part of the world. Belongings clearly shows how Laura and Lewis have worked closely and inspired each other. A very promising work that makes me look forward to their next projects together.”

– Sebastian Schwarz, former General Director, Glyndebourne

“Lewis and Laura are both very talented and intelligent young artists in their own right, and together create beautiful, thought-provoking pieces for performance.

It has been a pleasure being a witness to their collaborative process. Then to the Elements for Scottish Opera was a little gem: full of meaning and atmosphere.”

– Olivia Fuchs, Director (Then to the Elements)

“I was delighted that, when General Director of Glyndebourne, we were able to appoint Lewis Murphy as our Young Composer in Residence – somebody whose talent and potential were very much in evidence even at that young age. It has been a pleasure to follow his work and see him grow and develop as a composer.”

– David Pickard, Director, BBC Proms
