Theatre pre-production

I have a solid understanding of how to put a show together, so whatever musical requirement or problem you have, I can probably sort it. And if I can’t, I know a man who can!

Orchestral backings

Providing additional musical support for your live band is often essential and it's important to create these tracks sensitively so they blend seamlessly in a live situation. From my background in orchestral performance, I have extensive knowledge of all classical and pop instruments and their associated performance techniques. I have been approached for pre-production work on major arena and theatre tours for example: Giorgio Moroder 2019; The Queen Experience; One Night of Tina; 9 to 5.

Scoring

I have been using music notation software to produce arrangements for all manner of ensembles since it was first invented in the late 90s! I fully understand the most appropriate ways to notate different instrumental techniques and to produce parts which are instrument specific, including chord symbols where required.

Audio Editing

Need some audio chopping up for a live show or a dance project? Can't quite get that link to be seamless? I can do that efficiently and musically for a very reasonable rate.
Picture

I am experienced in: keyboard programming (Roland, Yamaha, Nord, Korg, Mainstage); MIDI routing & implementation; backing track programming; theatre cue software (QLab); Logic Pro X; live sound engineering; musical direction; cast & ensemble rehearsal; vocal warm-ups . . . and many other things which I have learned over the past 20 years working in music and theatre!
