About Me

My wife has talked me into getting this myspace site so that those of you that are interested can find out more about me and can see and hear me.I'm currently Principal Horn with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Principal Horn with The Colorado Music Festival Orchestra and Lecturer in French Horn at the University of Sydney. I'm a founding member of The New Sydney Wind Quintet. I've also held Principal positions with The Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra (Sydney Opera House), The Munich Symphony, The Queensland Symphony Orchestra and The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra.Before winning my first position in Adelaide, I clocked up some serious hours in the musical theatre scene in Sydney and I still love to be involved in all sorts of musical projects in all sorts of genres - from playing with acts like Il Divo, Delta Goodrem and Sarah Blasko to recording for Jimmy Barnes, to playing in the Australian Idol Orchestra and playing (and appearing!) on Anthony Callea's single "The Prayer".**** some related websites to check out**** - www.nswq.com.au, www.mso.com.au, www.usyd.edu.au, www.coloradomusicfest.org, www.stradmusic.org, www.stringsource.com.au
