Trumpeter

Manchester/York

I am a trumpet player who plays in MSC BIg Band and The Moods. In the past I have played in a wide variety of groups such as orchestras and big bands, in addition to performing solo. I am also a very experienced singer, having sung as a chorister in York Minster including solos in Radio broadcasts and the treble solos in Handels christmas oratorio , and also having returned there as a supernumerary to sing bass. Despite my choral foundations, I also sing pop and jazz songs, and enjoy writing songs for voice and piano.
