I have extensive experience in providing musical direction to local amateur groups, both in choral singing and in musical theatre.
In the theatre I have taken on the music for a number of productions, including Nunsense (Dan Goggin), Anything Goes (Cole Porter) and Oklahoma! (Rodgers and Hammerstein) amongst others, both teaching the music to the company and playing for or conducting the performances with live musicans in a variety of theatres of varying capacity.
As a choral conductor, I have worked with a number of amateur choirs to expand their repertoire and prepare them both for concerts and competition performances.
I am available for theatre productions and choral rehearsals.
I am currently permanent Musical Director of The Melody Choir, Kettering. and Musical Director of Wellingborough Pantomime Society's January 2025 production of Rapunzel at Castle Theatre Wellingborough.
