BA Solo Recital
I am currently studying a
Bachelor of Arts (Honours)
in Music Performance with
Abertay University and have
been playing Violin for about
11 years. Since leaving
high school I have achieved
a Distinction in my HND in
Music Performance and
have worked with many
orchestras and ensembles
with Violin such as:
Dunblane Chamber
Orchestra (Conductor:
Mark Wilson)
Glasgow Symphony
Orchestra (Conductor:
Tommy Fowler)
Stirling Regional Schools Orchestra
Callander Amateur Operatic Society (Conductor: Ian Milligan)
Edinburgh Youth Orchestra( Conductor: Sian Edwards)
Edinburgh Film Music Orchestra (Conductor: Yati Durant)
Stirling Orchestra (Conductor: Stephen Broad)
I am being taught by soloist Rosemary Ellison. Since I began lessons
with Rosemary in the recent years, my violin playing has accelerated
dramatically allowing me to achieve certification in ABRSM Grade 8
Violin and the hope to further my study in working towards a Masters
in Performing.
My hopes for the future entail travelling the world and the aim to
study abroad to enhance my musicianship. I have played in a
Masterclass with RSNO player Paul Medd and had the wonderful
opportunity to work with retired RSNO violinist Robert Gennings who
have both given me huge encouragement in following Music to ‘play
with all feelings unleashed’.
