Welcome to my website!

I am based currently in York, where I have recently gained a BA (Hons) in Music and am now undertaking a Masters by Research specialising in Composition, supervised by Roger Marsh and kindly funded by the AHRC.

During my time at York I have enjoyed writing music for friends, occasions, and for a variety of multimedia and interdisciplinary projects. Collaboration plays a large part of my compositional process, determining content and context in working with the musician/s as well as in treating each piece as an event in its own right.

If you are interested in hiring me to compose for you, your ensemble, or someone you know, please get in touch.

Please take a look around and have a listen to my music! I am always happy to hear from fellow artists looking to work on projects, discuss music or ideas or know more of what I do: feel free to get in touch via the contacts page.

You can also follow my musical activities on Soundcloud, at my YouTube channel, and, occasionally, I tweet.

I hope to hear from you soon,

James
