Hi! I'm a clarinet. I mean clarinettist. Is that supposed to have two T's? ... I play the clarinet. I also teach other people how to play it!

If you want to learn how to squeak with style, I'm your guy. I've squeaked in top orchestras such as the "Sydney Symphony Orchestra". Some of my most memorable squeaks have occurred while living in Amsterdam, where I lived for several years and somehow graduated with a Masters's degree.

These days I'm teaching all over Sydney, including at the Australian Institute of Music, the department of education's Arts Unit, and a dozen or so schools. I'm also freelancing with the opera, symphony and various other unusual ensembles that pop up. I'm a big fan of soccer, classic films and tv, and enjoy writing my own music - with and without the clarinet!

I'm teaching from my house in Enmore - feel free to get in touch!
