An excerpt from my recent concert in Ghent as part of @ Nicholas Church’s Bach series. It’s one of the most remarkable spaces and it was such a privilege to perform there on the gorgeous Flentrop organ.

It’s happened - I’m afraid I’ve gone and done it. After much deliberating, I’ve decided to create a website. I have no idea why but hopefully its purpose will become clear at some point. #organist #website #squarespace

It was such a delight to play alongside @Andreana_chan for this marvellous broadcast. Magnificent sounds from such a young choir!
Turn on @BBCRadio3 to hear the participants of our Choral Course in Cambridge this summer and their Choral Evensong broadcast. They're on in 5 minutes!

It was an absolute honour to play the organ for this project. I strongly urge everyone to listen when it’s out - the music is extraordinary!
We are thrilled to announce our newest release on Orchid Classics and in collaboration with Stephen Hough, 'Mirabilis'. Keep an eye out on our socials over the next couple of weeks for preview tracks and tasters of the album. You can also pre-order now:
