Music · where it began

Music

Organised sound. This is where it began for me: music came first, and the love of it is what shaped the healing, the coaching and the studio.

Violin at ten, music at University College Dublin and Charles University Prague, and a lifetime of it since — performance, ensembles, arrangement and the occasional score.

The portfolio starts here, and it is not a long list: a concert from the spring, and the work I want to be asked for. It goes up as it becomes real. Music is the thing I hold dearest, and I would rather it arrived properly than early.

Performance

In March I played in the Irish Chamber Orchestra Academy's concert at St Mary's Cathedral in Limerick, at the end of three days of intensive work with ICO's principal players.

There is a film of the concert, and it goes up on this page as soon as it is ready.

The study that came out of the conducting sits under Media, with the synopsis and the writing.

Still to fill

Sessions and arranging, and score work for stage and screen: this is the work I want to be asked for, and neither has landed yet. When it does, it goes here.

Sessions & arrangement

Recording, string arranging, and playing for other people's records.

Stage & screen

Score and sound work, where the music is doing the telling.

If you have a project in mind now, write to me and I will tell you whether I am the right player for it.
