About

As a composer, arranger and MD I specialise in the liminal spaces between Jazz, musical theatre and classical music. Lucious, whimsical and colourful are my watchwords. I am an avid storyteller and am every bit as passionate about lyric writing as I am about composition.

As a composer I have worked with ensemble Isis, the Ora singers and the Chroma Ensemble. I was a finalist in the Ora singers competition judged by John Rutter and double shortlisted for BBC young composer of the year.

A first class music graduate of the University of Oxford, I specialised there in composition, orchestration and production.

My foundational influences include Jaques Brel, Steven Sondheim, Michel Legrand, Ray Davies and Francis Poulenc.

I was musical director of Oxford Out of the Blue’ - an international acapella sensation who have amassed nearly 20 million youtube views. I led them through tours of the United States East Coast and China, as well as a successful run for Assembly at the Edinburgh Fringe. I was the groups chief arranger and produced their 2025 album ‘Spotlight’.

I am currently developing a workshop musical with the playwright Ethan Mclucas and working as a creative facilitator with Oxford Opera.
