Performing

As a performer, I aim to engage an audience fully in the sound world of a composition from the first note to the last.

Accompaniment Work

I am available to accompany grade and diploma exams for people on all instruments including voice. In the summer of 2016 I accompanied someone in their Grade 8 Trumpet exam in Malvern and someone else in their ABRSM clarinet diploma exam in Cardiff. In April 2017 I accompanied a number of students from Hereford Sixth Form College in their A level recitals.

Do get in touch in good time if you would like me to accompany you in an exam as there needs to be sufficient time to practise together.

 

Midsummer Music

 

Midsummer Music is a music agency which I am registereed with. They organise performances for weddings, parties etc.

I am on their books both as a solo pianist and as the leader of the GIVE TAKE Musical Remedies group.

 

Solo Piano Work

On 25th May 2018 I will be giving a solo recital at the Lion Ballroom in Leominster. The programme is all works by Bach and Shostakovich. Works in all 24 keys will be performed! But if this sounds rather daunting then most of them are very short!

The set of twenty-four Preludes which Shostakovich wrote in 1933 will be interspersed with pieces by Bach - the French Suite in B minor, the Partita in C minor and a number of Preludes and Fugues. The programme will be bookended by the first and last of Shostakovich's own Preludes and Fugues from Op 87.
