A Bit About Me

Whilst I like walking and taking photos (occasionally at the same time), my first love is music. I play baritone sax, bassoon, bass guitar, orchestral percussion and piano.

My musical influences include: Stephen ‘Doc’ Kupka; Gerry Mulligan; David Sanborn; Johnny Hodges, and Mindi Abair, amongst others, and my most recent musical appearances have been with The Galaxy Big Band, The Eddie Seales Big Band, The Lee Vasey Band, bassoon in Norfolk Symphony Orchestra, Norwich Philharmonic Orchestra, The Iceni Orchestra, Mainz Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra, The Band of the Dragoon Guards, and The Academy of St Thomas Orchestra.
