About Me


Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

I started playing the clarinet in school when I was 11 and decided then that I wanted a music career. I Later went on to study at Colchester Institue, where I majored my degree in compostion studying under "Alan Bullard" and continued my instrumental studies of clarinet and sax under "Charles Hine" and "Angela Fussell". I mainly compose for acoustic ensembles: orchestras, windbands, wind ensembles, percussion ensembles, vocal choirs etc. My compositions are usually programmatic or have a given theme or image in mind. I eventually intend to compose media music, sometimes my music can be experimental. Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
