I am a pianist / composer / conductor based near Bristol in South West England, and graduated with honours from the Royal College of Music, London, in the summer of 2006, having studied piano on the undergraduate course. I have a wide range of performing experience ranging from small scale recitals through to the large scale concert hall. As an accompanist, I have worked with both instrumentalists and singers, and have accompanied both recitals and examinations. I have accompanied at events such as the Bristol Music Festival, and have experience of accompanying exams at all levels, from grade one through to diploma level.
As a composer my work has been performed in venues as prestigious as St James Church on Piccadilly in London. As a tonal composer who believes in writing music that is both appealing and accessible to audiences, I have composed works ranging from short solo pices and 'a capella' motets to large scale choral and orchestral material.
I have experience of both choral and orchestral conducting, and am currently Musical Director of Wrington Vale Choral Society in Somerset. During my fourth year at the RCM I organised and conducted a performance of Mozart's Requiem in the version completed by Robert Levin using soloists and instrumentalists from the College. In similar events I also conducted Mozart's 21st and 39th symphonies and extracts from Handel's 'Messiah'.
On this website you can find further information about me and mp3 files of my piano performances. On the composer pages you can find a number of my original compositions and arrangements in pdf form, which are available for purchase.
