About Graham
- What kind of experience do you have?
I have played professionally for several years after graduation, including working with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Welsh National Opera and the Royal Philarmonic Concert Orchestra. I have experience of playing in all the major concert halls in England and Wales, performing orchestral, chamber, contemporary and opera programmes. I taught at Junior and Senior levels at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama on clarinet as well as lecturing Aural training and other academic lectures. I have taught in several independent schools in Bristol, Monmouth and Chepstow before moving to London in 2008, where I am performing and teaching privately.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
I do not do any teaching in school due to my job requirements, but have security clearance for my job - Royal Air Force Central Band
- Where and with whom did you train?
at Hull University, then to finish off my BMus at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, where I completed a Postgrad. I learned clarinet with John Reynolds - ex-Kent Opera and Rob Plane - Northern Sinfonia and BBC NOW, E flat clarinet with John Cooper - BBC NOW and Bass clarinet with Peter Fielding - Welsh National Opera.
- Do you belong to any professional organisations?
I am currently Principal Clarinet of the Central Band of the Royal Air Force, perceived internationally as perhaps the best UK military band!
