Oscar's profile picture
Organist
Cheltenham

Hi! I'm a professional pianist and piano teacher, who also does work as a composer and organist, currently based in the cotswolds, but able to travel. I have been playing the piano since I was 3 years of age, and have studied under professional concert pianists and teachers, including achieving a music degree. Giving my first recital at 7 years of age, I have since gone on to perform many solo works, chamber works and also played for many weddings, parties and events. Aside from my classical training, I also play contemporary music, including pop and rock, and have a very wide ranging repertoire. Anything that you require for your event, I would be happy to provide. Coupled with my skills as a composer, I often write my own arrangements/versions of contemporary music, and would also be happy to work with you on something bespoke if this would be suitable. I am also a skilled accompanist and chamber musician, and have worked with many choirs, orchestras and ensembles- something which I enjoy doing. Alongside my concert/performance schedule, I am also an experienced piano and theory teacher, as well as a conductor, and have worked privately and in schools across all age ranges and abilities, including tutoring on summer schools and specialist courses. If required, I would also be able to offer my services as an organist for your event, whether that be a regular church service or a special event like a wedding etc. I have given organ recitals previously, as well as accompanied hymns and choirs. I have also played for many different mass settings. I look forward to being able to work with you! Oscar

Very good. Delightful to meet. Only reservation … could have used a “bit more welly” in his playing which was otherwise perfect.
