About Michael
- What kind of experience do you have?
I am a highly skilled and experienced musician and conductor from within the Royal Marines Band Service, where I have demonstrated the ability to work at a professional level during a successful military career spanning over 24 years. I have undertaken musical roles on board Her Majesty's Royal Yacht Britannia where I was pianist for Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family from 1992-1997. I have arranged music that has been performed at high profile concerts including the Royal Albert Hall, London. I left the Royal Marines in March 2012 and currently teach in two schools in Shropshire as well as being an assessor for GCSE Music with the OCR Examination Board. I therefore have extremely good knowledge of OCR GCSE requirements and have taught composition and advised on performance coursework in schools.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
I have an enhanced CRB Certificate for each of the schools I teach including the Telford and Wrekin local authority.
- Where and with whom did you train?
Studied piano perfomance with Dr Colin Kingsley in Edinburgh and Neville Dilkes, associate contuctor of the Philomusica of London as well as the Royal Marines School of Music.
