I am a composer living and working in Aberdeenshire. My work is intimately inspired by the landscape surrounding me, living on the Forvie Nature Reserve. I also run a thriving private practice, and work alongside Drake Music Scotland as an Associate musician and composer. My creative life is varied, and here is where I share it.
For as long as I can remember, the landscape has been a facination for me. The Aberdeenshire coast is full of beauty and ruggedness in equal measure. When I began composing at the age of thirteen, it became a natural inspiration for my work and over the following fifteen years, it has come a sole focus. Explore my work below.
For many years, I have written as an aid to my music; while I admit I don’t have a particularly strong mastery of the English language. These words come in various forms, from poems, to prose and program notes. If you’d like to delve into my thoughts on nature, I have a few pieces of writing I’m rather proud of available for you to read.
