Freelance Orchestral Cellist
I'm a busy freelance Orchestral Cellist. Based just North of Bristol, I perform regularly in Bristol, Bath, Gloucestershire and across the UK. After several successful years registered with the Morgensterns Diary Service, I can now be booked for orchestral engagements via The Classical Music Homepage. I have worked with some of the world's leading conductors, including Sir Simon Rattle, Sakari Oramo, Oliver Knussen, Stephen Barlow, Sir Barry Wordsworth, Simone Young and Paul Daniel. The orchestras I have worked with include:
British Concert Orchestra- Jersey Symphony & Concert Orchestras
- Britten-Pears Orchestra
- British Police Symphony Orchestra
- City of Bristol Symphony Orchestra
- Regency Sinfonia
- Dartington Festival Orchestra
- National Musicians' Symphony Orchestra
- Birmingham Philharmonic
I am also a regular pit musician for shows and orchestras, including:
- Jesus Christ Superstar
- Westside Story
- Crazy For You
- HMS Pinafore
- Ariadne Auf Naxos
- The Cunning Little Vixen
- L'Elisir d'Amour
I have a particular interest in contemporary music, which began whilst at Birmingham University as a composer/performer, working with members of the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group (BCMG), and continued at the Britten-Pears School for Advanced Musical Studies, where I was able to work with Oliver Knussen and members of the London Sinfonietta. I have worked with a number of smaller chamber orchestras specialising in performances of contemporary music, including performances of new works at the Aldeburgh Festival.
