About to embark on my 6th annual appearance as Vocal Coach/Répétiteur at Sherborne Summer School of Music for the next 2 weeks alongside my wonderful colleague Alex Jenkins.

2 Cathedrals, twice, in 4 days!

I've loved playing the organ for services in Liverpool Cathedral for the past 2 days and I am also loving playing the organ for services in Southwark Cathedral for the next 2!

2 places I have previously been Organ Scholar (and therefore hold a special place in my heart) and I now get to play there as a professional!

BONUS: I managed to snap Hodge (Southwark's Cathedral Cat) too.

Today (well, yesterday) was definitely one for ticking something off the bucket list...

I am eternally grateful that I got my debut playing the Organ at the Royal Albert Hall! 😁

I was playing with the London Contemporary Orchestra as they played at "Red Bull Wololo: Londinium Age of Empires II and Age of Empires IV - Grand Finals".

Thank you for such an incredible experience. I loved every second of it!
