What does the teacher do?

As is the case with all full time musicians there are many components to what I do. As well as teaching I perform with The Queenstown Jazz Orchestra; the Dunedin City Jazz Orchestra; a duo called Middlearth; and as an instrumental solo set. I played the guitar in the production of Chicago in 2013, Jesus Christ Superstar in 2014.

After many years trying to teach myself and getting nowhere, I picked up the phone and began to do it properly. My ongoing development as teacher and musician is guided by tutors involved with the top music tertiary institutions in the country.
