Songwriter & Composer

I write in a variety of styles. My compositions range from serious choral works through to 'pop' songs; from simple piano pieces through to more complex instrumental ensembles.

I want my music to evoke a response and to touch your soul.

You can find examples of my music on this site. You'll find a cross section of instrumental works, choral works and songs.
