This Friday night at 8pm I’m delighted to be giving a tiny recital at Ohrpheo music school at Jablonskistraße 15, 10405 Berlin. I am preparing some pieces to play in a competition* and would love to share them with as many people as possible, so head on over – there will be a lot of…

I recently passed the 150-day mark after leaving Australia last, and it’s amazing to think of all that has happened since then. Since I arrived in Berlin, I’ve been taking an intensive German course where I’ve met several great new friends, finding a place to live, hearing some wonderful concerts, babysitting, and of course spending a…

I’m writing from North Adams, Massachusetts, USA, where I have almost come to the end of a childlike, challenging and life-changing experience at Bang On A Can Summer Festival. For  almost three weeks, I’ve been exploring music, art and life in the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. I have met inspiring, excited instrumentalists and composers from…

Next Wednesday, I’ll be performing a recital at Wesley Music Centre in Canberra as part of their Wednesday Lunchtime Live series.

I have just been named as…
