I have also studied for a short time with John McCaw and Sydney Fell at the RCM and, as a Military musician with Jack Brymer at Kneller Hall.
Tell me about some of your current students.
I currently have students of all ages from 9 to 75 years from a wide range of professional, social and cultural backgrounds. These include students with special needs such as Asperger's syndrome and Austism to Post Graduate music students and professional musicians.
Do you have a personal message for students?
I believe everyone has the potential to enjoy and participate in active music making. I try to tailor lessons to individual needs and differing learning styles. All styles, classical, jazz, pop and rock are catered for. Lessons are informal and designed to be fun while, at the same time, helping students to progress at their own pace. While I regularly enter students for examinations with the major examining boards (ABRSM and Trinity-Guildhall), I do not do so until the student feels they are ready. I also strongly believe that examinations should not be a substitute for lack of motivation and the instrinsic enjoyment of making music for its own sake. This is the main reason I have been able to maintain 100% pass rate in all examinations since 1975. As well as developing basic instrumental performing ability, I try to develop students general musicianship and aural perception skills and to broaden their musical horizons. I like to take the time to 'admire the view' rather than rushing to the sumit via the quickest route. I believe this ultimately makes for a more accomplished, versatile and rounded musician.
