Composition lessons for all ages and abilities!
Whether you want to pursue music composition as a serious endeavour or just want to have a bit of fun, you can trust that your musical journey will be in good hands.
I am an Adelaide-based composer and educator, with works commissioned and performed by the Omega Ensemble at the Sydney Opera House, the Australian String Quartet at Elder Hall, and the Adelaide Youth Orchestra at the Adelaide Town Hall, alongside a number of works written for the Elder Conservatorium. Please visit my website for audio samples of my work.
With a recently completed Master's degree in music composition (with specific focus on composing music for contemporary children in a number of mediums) and as a currently music research PhD candidate, I am passionate about accessible education and support for those at all stages of their musical journeys.
I understand how daunting it is to start writing music for the first time, so I hope to provide a friendly and relaxed environment that will help you to explore your musical ideas, as well as expand your knowledge and abilities in music composition.
I focus primarily on notated composition and the assumption that the music composed is intended to be performable by real people (as opposed to orchestral libraries through production programs, although this can be discussed too).
Basic musical knowledge is required, such as the ability to read music (don't have to be able to sight read, just understand the basics of notation) and a basic understanding of the keyboard. If you're not sure if you fit this criteria just yet, don't hesistate to get in contact, or book a piano or musicianship lesson with me to brush up on your skills.
