Performance
I currently play as part of a clarinet duo and with a small chamber group (piano and voice).
Our clarinet duo offers light background/event music, playing a range of different styles. Repertoire includes Crusell, Mozart, Bartok, Frank, Lewin and some jazz numbers. Specific events can be catered for – for example, adding in versions of ‘Happy Birthday’ or christmas carols. Please use the contact page for further information.
The chamber group’s repertoire includes pieces by Bliss, Szalowski, Spohr, Schubert and others. We are available for events and for concerts. Recordings of my playing can be heard on the multimedia page and give an idea of some of the available repertoire.
