The City Garden was commissioned by Salisbury Community Choir in 2013 to mark its 21st birthday.  It was first performed by the Salisbury Community Choir and Orchestra, members of the South Wilts Grammar School A Cappella Choir, and the SAYM Children’s Choir, conducted by Jeremy Backhouse, in Salisbury Cathedral on 12th October 2013.

Jeremy Backhouse writes:

"The City Garden takes us on a romantic journey through the seasons; different moods, temperatures and weather supply the dramatic light and shade of this work. Inside My Heart is an instantly memorable song taken from Spring Movement, and has been recorded and released as a charity single in aid of the Rainbow Trust by the Salisbury Community Choir."
