Southend Vox have recently commissioned a song to be written for the choir by TV and film composer, Daniel Giorgetti.

Watch out for Dan’s latest project – he has written the music for the new ITV1 drama ‘Collision’, which starts on 9 November at 9pm.

According to the Collision’s author, Anthony Horowitz, this drama is “moving, tense, thrilling and compelling”. He’s always been been interested in car accidents. “In a sense, every car journey is a story and a car crash is, by its very nature, an extraordinary, unprecedented way for many stories to come together. I’m also interested in the metaphysical side of car accidents, the idea that the tiniest things can have huge, life-changing results.”
