Musical Direction:
I work regularly as an MD with the West End Gospel Choir, and have recently MD'd Newrevue and national tours of Mad About the Musicals, Waterloo and Shakin' All Over.
My next project is a UK premiere of the musical 'Slay it with Music'.
I have also MD'd a professional pantomime each year for the last five years, and have conducted shows at venues including the Bridewell, the Cochrane, Oval House, the King's Head Islington and Goldsmiths College.
I was a vocal coach for Bernstein's Mass and 'The Ancient Mariner', both at the Southbank Centre, and have run a choir in Lambeth for the last two years.
PIano/Keyboards:
My work includes national and international tours, and projects at the Southbank Centre and with English National Opera, English Touring Opera and Glyndebourne. I also work as a classical, jazz and musical theatre accompanist and have played for many weddings as a cocktail pianist. I have recently started to perform as a featured classical performer on cruise ships.
Organist:
As an organist I am familiar with all types of Anglican Church Service, and have also played for many weddings and funerals.
Composer/Arranger:
I frequently arrange vocal and orchestral pieces, particularly for choirs and musical theatre shows.
