His setting of the Shakespeare ode Fear no more the heat o' the sun (qv) was performed by Capital Voices, and his Hosanna setting by Harmonic Means, both in late 2010, and his Sonnet and Ave Maria were both performed in October 2010 by the RMIT Occasional Choral Society as part of their choral composition competition, and the Ave Maria again in Hungary in October 2011 at the "Singing Hungary" regional choral festival. "I shall not pass this way again" and "Prayer of St Francis" were performed by Harmonic Means in mid 2012 and the set of three motets by Capital Voices at the end of 2012.
