Miffy Storytime Collection was a joy to work on, and Yoto were a joy to work with. I began the project back in May 2024, and it was released in November 2024.
The collection features 19 short stories and marks Yoto’s first-ever commissioned original score—an honour I was entrusted with. I composed around 20 minutes of orchestral music in a light classical style, performed and recorded by the Northern Film Orchestra under the baton of Melvin Tay.
The stories were beautifully narrated by Hannah Melbourn and expertly produced by Harriet Blackamore, who is always a delight to collaborate with.
It is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved—Yoto, Harriet, Hannah, the NFO, and myself—that Miffy Storytime Collection has been nominated for an award, standing proudly alongside other incredible projects and deserving nominees at the inaugural Speakies Awards.
For a long time, many in the audio industry have felt that audiobook and audio performance work was underappreciated in the awards sector. Thanks to the British Audio Awards, we now have a platform that truly celebrates and recognises the artistry of this field.
