John is active in a wide variety of musical areas. He has written the music for a number of shows, two of which have been published and are now performed around the world. 'All 4 One', which tells the story of The Man in the Iron Mask, received its US Premiere in May 2008. He is busy developing another new show, The Great Sleigh Robbery, which is receiving interest from professional producers and publishers.

Many of John's choral arrangements are sung by the choir, which have helped to expand audiences and encourage new members into the mystic world of Male Voice Choirs. Many other choirs across the UK are now showing considerable interest in using these songs to help develop and sustain their choirs in a similar way. The most notable is the Morriston Phoenix MVC which have just added John's arrangement of Angels to their concert repertoire.

John is in considerable demand as a sound engineer for many shows and concerts. This extends to recordings for choirs, orchestras and solo singers. He recently worked on CD recordings of The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, won the prize for Best Sound for his sound design and mixing of We Will Rock You at the 2007 Waterford Festival of Light Opera, Ireland, and will be working on a recording at The Royal Festival Hall. John will be the Sound Engineer for Brentwood Council's Bi-Annual Seen and Heard showcase in November, which will feature the RPO (again!).

Recently Brentwood Council invited John to adjudicate at their 2008 "Brentwood's got Talent" contest, where he was sat alongside the Mayor in an X-Factor style competition. However, unlike the lucky members of our choir, at the council's request, the participants did not enjoy the full force of John's "Simon Cowell" style critique.

Through his own business, TS3, John is in high demand as a sales and marketing consultant working to develop a number clients businesses. Why not check out John's activities at www.ts3.uk.com or www.johntrentwallace.com
