ABOUT

I’ve had experience performing classical recitals in my younger years receiving my LMus in piano by age 14, performing to Joan Sutherland three times between age 14 and 16 and winning several national competitions/eisteddfodau including every section at the Bankstown Eisteddfod and the Rachmaninoff section at the Sydney McDonalds Performing Arts Challenge. I’ve been interested in contemporary pop, rock, film music and performing advanced piano covers of these genres on the streets of Sydney as a busking musician. I would now like to explore playing with vocalists and with a band and am open to learning the style coming from a classical background.
