Qualifications
Experience
The main result of the lessons is the enjoyment in making music, but some of my students like to go on to take graded exams. I teach both A.B.R.S.M. and Trinity Guildhall exam boards. I have over 300 passes, many merits and distinctions in the graded exams from one to eight including diplomas on all my instruments. Many of my students join bands and orchestras and some go on to study music at university or at specialist schools like Cheethams in Manchester, and have their own careers in the music business.
Jazz Night at ARC Stockton with Jeremy McMurray and the Pocket Jazz Orchestra
Join us for a fantastic evening of live jazz at ARC Stockton on Thursday 11th June at 8.00pm.
Jeremy McMurray and the Pocket Jazz Orchestra feature an outstanding line-up of musicians, including fabulous alto saxophonist Mark Toomey. Alongside his teaching work across the North East, Mark has enjoyed an exceptional career as a leading saxophonist since graduating from the Guildhall School of Music. He has performed on the QE2, played with numerous big bands and smaller ensembles, and is also a prolific composer who will be featured at the forthcoming Newcastle Jazz Festival on 27th June.
Joining him is top session drummer Paul Smith, whose impressive career has seen him perform with artists ranging from Sting to Madonna. He is currently playing with Lindisfarne.
The line-up also includes acclaimed Manchester jazz bassist Ken Marley and local guitarist Paul Donnelly.
This special performance will also feature the fabulous jazz vocalist Ruth Lambert, performing classic songs from the Great American Songbook made famous by legends such as Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan.
The gig starts at 8.00pm on Thursday 11th June.
Looking forward to seeing you all there!

I've got a special gig this Thursday the 3rd at St. Peter's Church, Stockton. This gig is the first time my daughter Laura has sang with my quartet. I'm also looking forward to the return of Bob Caswell singing with the band. It's all in a good cause too, church funds. Over the years Laura has got so much out of singing with the choir. Hope to see you there, 7:30pm start. ... See MoreSee Less
