Having background piano can really set off an event and provide that unique selling point that helps make it a memorable occasion. I provide my own professional portable piano as needed.

For 12 years I was a Primary School Music Teacher working with 440 children weekly in classes of 30 at a time across all Key Stage groups at Primary – EYFS (Nursery and Reception), Key Stage 1 and 2 (up to Year 6). I planned and devised tailor-made curriculums. I managed a team of Instrumental Teachers and grew the instrumental offer with a second guitar teacher and brass tutor (initially paid for along with brass instruments via a grant I won) and the most children learning instruments of any school in the borough of Hackney. I put on regular annual events such as concerts and a talent show, the year capped off with our original festival I created – BLastonbury – involving every child in the school.
