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; 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 fundamental tool for learning

*  supports staff to work confidently with music in an open -ended manner

"The highlight of the night is the musical score which has been devised by cast member Richard Hughes.  He provides accompaniment using a variety of instruments including an accordion, tuba and even two pairs of scissors."
