Britlinks Alex Robertson

A daunting invitation to play the violin in a prison prompted classically trained musician Alex Robertson to write the haunting, expressive improvisations which became the album "Spirit to Spirit". Trained as a violinist at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, Alex's conversion to Christianity forced a radical rethink of his attitude to music as a means of personal expression. A personal blend of influences, rooted in the classical tradition but breaking out beyond it, adds up to a distinctive and individual style and sound. Committed to ministry rather than entertainment, Alex sees music as a powerful channel for spiritual communication. He now works full time with Barratt Ministries, a teaching and media organization in Manchester, and ministers regularly in Britain and abroad. The past year has seen visits to France, Belgium, Holland and Canada.
