I am a composer, performer (pianist and ‘cellist) and teacher of music and musical theatre. Therefore singing is also central to my musical life. As a pianist I am actively developing a small but focused New Music Repertoire, which I actively seek to integrate into the Electro-acoustic Ensemble programming. I am also a jazz performer believing that improvising skills are important to my compositional method in the same way that playing Bach is an essential contributor to my technical ability as a pianist. I perform many of my own compositions but am seeking collaboration now with other musicians, which will be an important part of future work. Finally as a music teacher at York College I have skills, which I hopefully bring to the EAE education programme. My 'creed' is to aim to break down musical barriers and involve participants in the work of the ensemble in a meaningful way, which will inform their future artistic ambitions.. |
