ARRANGING
I arrange music for my own work and for others, with a focus on string quartet, winds and brass. Arrangements are developed using MIDI and instrumental libraries, and delivered as fully notated scores for session musicians.
I am happy to work collaboratively to shape arrangements around a song, voice or existing material.

Cigarettes and Smokescreens (Anne Gair)

PIANO
I work as a session pianist and keyboard player, performing on acoustic piano and a range of keyboards.
My playing is sensitive and supportive, with a strong emphasis on musical intent. Iโm comfortable working from lead sheets, scores, or improvised frameworks, and enjoy shaping parts collaboratively.
I can record remotely on a Schimmel C180 grand piano, using a matched pair of Neumann KM184 microphones, or Iโm equally happy to work in a studio environment.
