A self taught composer. I’ve had the pleasure of a commission of a guitar concerto for the Scottish guitarist Sean Shibe, with a world premier at the Cumnock Tryst music festival 2017 and with its north American premier on March 2019. I have also had amazing invitations to compose for the Hebrides ensemble and the wonderful Drake Music Scotland’s Digital Orchestra. With also an opportunity to compose for the classical guitarist Christopher Parkening of which I composed a sonata. Recently during lockdown I have had an oboe solo recorded by the RSNO for a online broadcast.
