SHEENA COOTE NEW ALBUM "MIXED BLESSINGS"
Sheena Coote is a semi-professional composer and who lives in a small cottage on the Shropshire / Staffordshire border (UK) with her husband, young daughter and a small menagerie of animals.
Her album "Mixed Blessings" (Red Admiral Records) gives 25 minutes of relaxing and soothing music. Enabling calm and pleasant thoughts whatever the lifestyle or challenges the day presents. A calming and tranquil backing for video or film and ideal for background music when entertaining or dining with friends.
Sheena started piano lessons at the age of three years and began composing at the age of five by putting music to her favourite poems. She studied piano until she left University and wrote a musical which had a successful run in Edinburgh and then went on to be previewed in a West End theatre. She has been invited to write a new musical for the same theatre in the West End and is half way through writing it. Sheena currently earns a living playing her music and other classical piano pieces live, teaches some piano lessons as well as being a full-time mother. A runner up in the UK song writing competition with her song Messin' she has written many musical theatre songs and pop songs.
The Edinburgh Singers recorded a CD of her original music which went on sale in HMV in Edinburgh and all the proceeds went to charity. She enjoys most genres of music, but particularly film music and all the classical composers of the 18th and 19th century. Her writing is influenced by her study of the classical period and love of film music, also very influenced by her family's day to day life. Her piano compositions are original contemporary pieces with strong melodies which also capture the spirit of the classical period.
