Alan Bullard (b.1947) Alan Bullard was born in London, and studied with Herbert Howells at the Royal College of Music, and at Nottingham University. He enjoyed a successful career in music education, most recently as Head of Composition at Colchester Institute and as an examiner for ABRSM. Recently he has devoted his time to composition, editing, and arranging.
His music unfailingly appeals to both performers and audiences; he has written for all kinds of choirs, with instrumental works for soloists, ensembles, chamber orchestras, and a wind band festival. Alan is also a respected writer of music for examination syllabuses and educational albums. His major publications include the inspirational Oxford Book of Flexible Anthems and Oxford Book of Flexible Carols, Alan Bullard Carols, and Alan Bullard Anthems. He and his wife Janet also write the Pianoworks series for the older beginner.Alan Bullard's website

"Alan Bullard has the knack for composing interesting, charming carols, and this collection of ten carols shows his skill and diversity . . . There is much to savor here." - Philip Brunelle, American Organist, December 2011 "Above all, though, Bullard appears to have drawn his chief source of inspiration from the eloquent simplicity of folk-carols. This publication stands as an ideal appendix to OUP's ubiquitous 100 Carols for Choirs; certainly, choirs in possession of both will hold a repertoire advantage over those with access only to the older volume." - Choir & Organ, November 2009
