Further, he picks up on subtle inflections and articulations in my vocal lines and incorporates them into his playing, giving my performances an ease and coherence I have struggled to find with other pianists. John's technical ease with piano accompaniments in virtually any genre allows me maximum freedom of expression and interpretation. I have been lucky to work with John as my accompanist for exams, music festivals and competitions since my early days as a chorister at Lincoln Cathedral and music scholar at Lincoln Minster School. I work semi-professionally in choirs and as a soloist for large choral works, recitals, weddings and other events. I am currently studying music at the University of York, and am a soprano specialising in Renaissance polyphony, Early Music performance practice and Contemporary vocal repertoire. I thoroughly recommend him for all your accompanist needs. On the day of the exam, John will also have a quick run through at the exam centre and offer some final words of advice for that great exam mark and to calm the nerves. "a really positive atmosphere for the students" John is also able to provide extra support with aural tests should you need it, and additional rehearsals are also an option which help sometimes with the higher grades. Rehearsal session feedback has always been constructive and supportive with a really positive atmosphere for the students. He has a very amiable manner, all of my students come back after a rehearsal with him and tell me how nice he was, and how he put them at their ease. John is a very versatile accompanist and I have used him through the entire grades from 1-8 with my students.
He provides an excellent service, playing all the parts perfectly where my limited piano skills fall short of the mark. I have been using John for all of my exam accompanying over the last 4 years. I am also a former leader of Leicester Symphony Orchestra. I have been teaching for some 17 years since graduating from Birmingham Conservatoire and I also perform regularly in and around Leicester with my string quartet '4tissimo' and in theatre bands. I also conduct the Concert Orchestra, one of Leicestershire Music Services' higher level Saturday morning orchestras.
