| Introduction | I'm on the eternal hunt to find the best in classical and jazz music education not just for children but for their long suffering parents too... I am a violinist in the West End of London having been a principal violinist at English National Opera before that spent the best part of a decade touring the world as a member of the first violin section of the London Symphony Orchestra. I've also been a session fixer for COOL Music and a presenter for BBC4 TV and Classic FM radio. I'm an app developer for a kiddies nursery rhymes app called FunKey Rhymes and I coach in various music colleges throughout the UK. |
