As an orchestral  conductor I particularly enjoy conducting music from the classical period, especially Mozart. I have directed both Symphonies 21 and 39 in public performance, and hope to direct all of them in the coming years. I have also directed Mozart's Requiem in the version completed by Robert Levin . For this performance I purchased a complete performance set of both vocal and orchestral parts, and these are available for hire. Please email for details.

As with my piano studies, I also enjoy studying neglected composers of the classical era. Of particular interest to me are Josef Myslivecek, Carl Friedrich Abel and Georg Benda  I believe too much emphasis is put on mainstream composers, and whilst the likes of Mozart and Haydn are fantastic and get 'bums on seats', there is far too much good music from less well known composers, which is not performed.

As a choral conductor I have on occasions conducted two of my three local choral societies (Portishead and Nailsea), and am presently Music Director for Wrington Vale Choral Society . With them, I have recently performed Stainer's Crucifixion, and planned for a November concert is Haydn's 'Missa Cellensis in honorem BVM'. I am also Music Director for a small chamber choir which runs in Portishead during the summer months. With them, I have directed many kinds of music, including various masses and motets by Palestrina, Victoria and Byrd; Elgar and Mendelssohn part songs; and music by Michael Hurd and Jonathan Dove. Whilst a student I also conducted extracts from Handel's 'Messiah' and Mozart's Requiem.
