SHORTER BIO:
I’m a composer, performer and organiser originally from Yorkshire (UK), currently living and working in Copenhagen (DK). I often work at an intersection between music for instruments and voices; electronic sound; text; video; and performance. My music regularly engages with a re-contextualisation of everyday sounds, objects, and automatic, repetitive behaviours to reveal the latently musical in the banal.
Recent pieces have involved, amongst other things, documentary techniques; audience participation; repetition; music-theatre; hold-music; gamification and quotation.
Recent commissions have come from SPOR Festival (for Duo Van Vliet), Aarhus Kammerorkester; Riot Ensemble / Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival (for percussionist Sam Wilson); The Night With… (for The Hermes Experiment); Hebrides Ensemble / Edinburgh Book Festival; The Cumnock Tryst; and Cryptic Glasgow. One of four nominees for the Gaudeamus Award 2025, I'll present multiple works at the festival in Utrecht (NL), as well as a new work for NADAR ensemble, which will additionally be toured at partner festivals: Warsaw Autumn (PL), TRANSIT (BE) and New Music Dublin (IE)
My music has been programmed at festivals such as: SPOR Festival (DK); Darmstädter Ferienkurse (DE); Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival (UK); Matera Intermedia (IT); St Magnus International Festival (UK); Visiones Sonoras (MX); MINU_festival_for_expanded_music (DK); EviMus (DE); Sound-Image (UK).
I am a member of composer-performer group Current Resonance, regularly contributing to meticulously curated intermedial events. I am also the chairperson for Aarhus Unge Tonekunstnere and was the treasurer of Ung Nordisk Musik Danmark between 2023-2024.
As of 2024, I teach composition at Sankt Annæ Gymnasium (MGK) in Copenhagen.
