Inspirations:
-To compose & stage my own ballet.
-To collaborate with many people from a diverse array of backgrounds, skillsets, and practices.
-To create/ work on projects that tell stories.
Aspirations:
Although I am able to to tap into any style or genre when required, my own distinctive musical voice conjures magical yet twisted fairy tale atmospheres. Often ethereal, delicate, and innocent in quality juxtaposed by moments that are eerie, macabre, and haunting.
Soundworld:
Creatively, I am led very much by my intuition and my inspirations. I love to compose music that is characterised by something, be it a story or another external concept.
The parameters of this kind of stimuli ultimately inform the structure, sound world, and contrasting moments needed to bring the project to life, thus lending more space for freedom and improvisation when composing the musical material.
