Composition, arrangement, orchestration, copying & engraving

I specialise in creating high quality music for projects including film and television scores, live concerts and events, studio recordings, theatre productions and publishing, working closely with my clients to fulfil their vision. I work regularly with the leading orchestras across New Zealand and Australia, and often send music further afield, from London to Los Angeles, Denmark to Budapest, Brisbane to Brazil. I’m highly experienced working remotely, with a flexible workflow to suit the creative and logistical demands of varying projects.

  • Original music music for concerts, film and television, as well as sound design and commercial work.

  • Bespoke arrangements, from chamber music, to symphony orchestra, to large multi-tiered arrangements bringing together hundreds of musicians. A list of arrangements available for hire can be found here.

  • I am an expert in Sibelius and Dorico, and proficient in Finale for projects that require it.

  • Equally at home working with Logic, Cubase, Ableton Live and Pro Tools, as with historic or avant-garde handwritten manuscripts.

  • I produce gorgeous, high quality sheet music implementing the latest international standards.

  • Advanced music notation and publishing layouts available using Adobe Creative Suite. PDF preflight quality control executed with Pitstop Pro.

  • Large collection of industry-leading sound libraries and audio plugins to produce high quality mockups at any stage of the project.

Consulting, producing, conducting

I am highly regarded for my deep musical, creative and technical understanding, as well as passion for orchestras, music notation and instrumental technique. I am available to support you and your project, whether that be producing, conducting or coordinating orchestral recording sessions, supervising sheet music production, score/booth reading, synth and orchestral programming, or simply advice on how to approach a project, on recording line-ups, or how to ensure a session runs smoothly. Contact me to chat about your project.
