Music for Liturgy

Maybe I can help you?

I am an experienced, well-qualified and collegially minded church-musician and organist based in north London. I work with Anglican and Catholic parishes and Nonconformist congregations that are seeking short-notice musical leadership. I have up-to-date Enhanced DBS clearance, UK Qualified Teacher Status (more …). and Public Liability Insurance.

I studied organ-performance and choral conducting on the Advanced Post-graduate Performers course at the Royal Academy of Music (University of London) gaining the Principal’s ‘Frederick Keene Prize’ for organ. I have a PhD in historical musicology (Goldsmiths, University of London), my studies funded by AHRC, and  a Masters degree in Contemporary Liturgical Music (APU Cambridge). My Bachelors degree is in Music Education (University of Winchester).  I have diplomas from the Royal College of Music (ARCM: organ performance with honours) and from the Royal Academy of Music (LRAM: organ teaching).

I have successfully combined my musical career not only with that of a classroom teacher in inner-London primary and secondary schools but also as a university-based project manager both at UCL and at Birkbeck, University of London.

 

And to those special people who over the  years have taught me to play, ‘Thank  you!”
