About me
| I studied composition at the Royal College of Music as a Foundation Scholar with William Mival, and as a post graduate at Cardiff University (MMus & PhD) with Professors Anthony Powers and Judith Weir. I was also an SPNM shortlisted composer from 2006-2009. My work has been performed by, amongst others, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Music Theatre Wales, the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, at the Cheltenham Music Festival, the Tête à Tête Opera Festival, and Elektrostatic, Bristol. My work has also been broadcast on BBC Radio 3. I am active as a pianist and conductor, and have worked frequently as an arranger, accompanist, coach and musical director. For many years my time at UWE was split between the Centre for Music, looking after the classical and jazz extra-curricular music activities, and as a Senior Lecturer in Music Technology for the department of Computer Science and Creative Technologues (CSCT). I now work full time as a Senior Lecturer in Music Technology, and I am Programme Leader for both the AMT and CMT degree programmes. I teach composition at all levels, with a focus on the intersection of instrumental and vocal composition with technology. I also teach music theory, music history, music performance, and supervise a range of student projects at undergraduate and postgraduate level. |
