Piano & Organ

Piano & Organ

I am interested in performing solo and accompanying instrumentalists and singers. I have a broad repertoire of styles, mainly classical, and enjoy the challenge of learning new works.

I have been involved as a church musician in and around Brixham, South Devon, since 2011. I prefer progressive, accessible and inclusive forms of church music, both traditional and modern, to cater for all tastes. So for churches requiring a pianist or organist in Torbay I may be available but I am not seeking a permanent appointment.

The organ is a curious beast to master with something of an anorak following but can be very rewarding. For texture and colour it is brilliant but I much prefer the piano for expression and sensitivity. At home I have a lovely modern Grotrian-Steinweg piano and a Content Compact 224 practice organ.
