Mark Glentworth
Mark Glentworth studied percussion at the Royal Northern College of Music, and graduated in 1980.

including the London Sinfonietta and BBC Symphony Orchestra. He is also active as a
composer, and has been working closely with Steven Berkoff, the actor and play-write,

artists and has recently completed his second vibraphone solo piece which is soon to be
