Hello! I'm a piano player and composer, ear-trainer and father. My band, Curios, plays the tunes I write. We've got a myspace page which is all about us, so I'll spare you here. I have given them the number 1 position on my friends, I should have thought.



Every Wednesday I become a professor of Aural Training & Transcription at the Royal Academy of Music, which is fun and involves singing in four-part dirge. They sometimes let me take an ensemble, which becomes a highlight of my life, as the standard of musician kids there is unbelievable. The future of jazz is safe, let me tell you.



Here I am playing with Curios. It's a tune for Jenson Button, which I hope won't become an elegy to the career he might have had.



STOP PRESS! Jenson is the 2009 World Champion! So now you can listen to this tune with a sort of gladness in your heart.
