Fresh off the press (2011) is the Mel Bay English Fiddle Book , a comprehensive selection on which Paul has assisted Chris Bartram with editing and transcription. 

The Pyle Manuscript is a collection of mainly dance tunes dating from 1817, assembled by Richard Pyle of Nether Wallop in Hampshire. The book now lives in the Records  Library in Winchester. Some years ago Bob Shatwell transcribed the tunes and began to work on them; he enlisted Roger Watson and TAPS, who then drafted in Paul and formed a partnership with WildGoose. Paul and Bob have prepared a number of the tunes for publication, and researched thoroughly into the background of the tunes and of Pyle himself. The collection has been published alongside a companion CD containing both audio and MIDI files, co-produced by Paul and featuring Mat Green and Andy Turner, Tim Laycock and Colin Thompson, Will Duke and Dan Quinn, Roger Watson and Bob Shatwell, the Burseldon Village Band, Saul Rose,
and Paul on oboe and fiddle.

Whilst working with Paul Hutchinson as Belshazzar's Feast, Paul helped to edit two books of selections from Nathaniel Kynaston's early 18th century dance tune collections.  ' Mr Kynaston's Famous Dance' and 'The She Favourite' were compiled and overseen by specialist dance caller Andrew Shaw, and released as companions to Belshazzar's Feast's recordings .

Paul has had a number of his psalm chants published, by Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, and in the chant collection 'Cantica Nova' (Kirklees Music).

His setting of W.H. Auden's 'What's in your mind?' was the only song incorporated into 'Jellyfish Cupful' (Ulysses), a book of tributes to the poet and academic John Fuller who was a friend of Paul's in his Magdalen days.
