The website has recently had a complete make-over, so please take a look around - I hope you like it!


The latest update has added even more hi-res photos and downloads, including ‘It Shouldn’t Happen to an Organist’, stories and anecdotes from my career.  There’s also a lot more in the way of sheet music for piano, keyboard and organ, plus updated teaching materials and many new mp3 audio files, including some archive material I thought had been lost forever!

Hello, and a very warm welcome to my website. I will be updating the site on a regular basis, so I hope you'll come back from time to time to see what’s new. On the site you'll find plenty of information about me and my work, including a biography and some galleries of photos from across the years, plus links to some sites you may find interesting. There’s also a downloads page that has some teaching materials, anecdotes, sheet music and lots of mp3 audio tracks to stream or download.

I’ve been an organist and keyboard player for over 41 years, and have played in concerts and at music fairs and organ/keyboard festivals all over the UK and Europe. Over the years my career has seen me playing all sorts of electronic, theatre and classical organs, as well as pianos and keyboards. From 1977 to 1989 I was one of Kawai’s team of Product Specialists and travelled all over Europe and Japan, playing, demonstrating and helping to design some of their products. Since then I’ve worked with several other major manufacturers such as Lowrey, Orla and Hammond, as a player and freelance design consultant.

I’ve been a regular writer for Keyboard Player magazine since 1984 and, in addition to lots of product reviews, I write musical arrangements and original compositions for piano, organ and keyboard and produce a monthly series on computer music making called, appropriately, Computer Music. In addition to writing for the magazine, I currently spend most of my time teaching private students, as well as in local schools and at Bonners Music School in Eastbourne.
