timely
Playing the accordion and tuba, I perform in freely-improvising environments, in small to medium sized ensembles and solo. I also play with the Dovetail Orchestra, an ensemble for asylum seekers and refugees and also play for theatre and dancing.
I compose music and have an MA (distinction) in composition from Bath Spa University. I have written music based on tidal patterns and the subjective nature of perceptions of time. The most recent performance of an organ piece performed at All Saints Church, Clifton, Bristol by Huw Morgan. I have also written music for theatre and film.
I work with music and visual arts in education and community settings. I currently run a project at Hartcliffe Nursery School, Bristol funded by The Earthsong Foundation that:,
* explores how musical engagement can support communication and language skills
* looks at improvisation as a learning tool
* supports staff to work confidently with music in an open -ended manner
I also do things like this.........(Band At The End Of The World - Ramshacklicious)
