MARK GLENTWORTH – writer/performer

At the age of 16, Mark Glentworth was one of the youngest students to study percussion at the Royal Northern College of Music. It was during his time as a student that he composed his world-renowned vibraphone solo Blues for Gilbert which has gone on to become the most performed, recorded and studied solo tuned percussion piece of all time, with hundreds of performances on YouTube, several of which have had over 100,000 views. Mark was also a regular extra percussionist with the Hallé Orchestra.

Mark has travelled the world with his long-term collaborator, the celebrated actor/writer Steven Berkoff, performing his musical scores to many of his acclaimed theatrical productions. This has included several tours to Japan, also Australia, many countries in Europe and Scandinavia. During Mark’s time working with Steven Berkoff, he was part of many large-scale productions including Kafka’s Metamorphosis with Tim Roth and Sink The Belgrano! at the Mermaid Theatre, Coriolanus at the Edinburgh Festival, Kafka’s The Trial at the National Theatre, and Greek and On The Waterfront in the West End.
