In 2008 I obtained my BMus from Canterbury Christ Church University, graduating with a first class honours degree. At present I am studying at postgraduate level with Dr. Linda Hirst at Trinity College of Music, London. I have performed as soloist in many recitals and concerts. Most recently I have had the pleasure of singing the soprano solo parts in Joseph Haydn’s Missa in Angustiis (Nelson Mass), Tippet’s A Child of Our Time, Stanford’s Magnificat in G and Karl Jenkins’ The Armed Man: Mass for Peace. In June 2008 I was part of international performance company Companion Star’s new and experimental approach to chamber opera and music theatre in the work-shop / work-in-progress performance of American composer Ellen Lindquist’s For the Living and the Dead, in Västerås, Sweden. Together with singer and researcher CN Lester I have founded EnTravesti Opera Ensemble, a performance collaborative focusing on gender identity, representation and confusion in opera. For more information see www.entravesti.com. For the past seven years I have enjoyed working as a teacher, teaching children and adults in a diverse range of musical activities, ranging from musical playgroup for small children, children’s and adult’s choirs to one-to-one instrumental and vocal tuition.
