Biography
I'm a 21-year-old pianist and organist going into my final year at Durham University studying Music. I love performing and am very lucky that my recitals are starting to become more popular and thus more frequent. I am Organ Scholar at University College, Durham, and have performed with the choir at numerous cathedrals in the UK. There is nothing more exciting than sitting at an organ console and filling a cathedral with sound!
