As the Dust Rises (guqin/mixed ensemble)

I am an Australian-born composer of concert music and music for screen as well as an experienced arranger and orchestrator. I enjoy collaborating on a range of projects from small scale short films to advertising, feature scores and live performances.

My scores cover a range of genres from orchestral to electronic and popular styles. My turn-around is fast, I can capture a mood quickly and can provide tracks to suit all requirements.

I have written for numerous ensembles and performing arts organisations including the Melbourne and Adelaide Symphony Orchestras, members of the New York Philharmonic, Kammer Ensemble, the Song Company, Orkest de Ereprijs, Chronology Arts, the Royal College of Music Symphony Orchestra and the Composers’ Ensemble. My orchestration and arrangement credits include work for Japanese video game composer Hitoshi Sakimoto, Australian composer Matthew Hindson, oud virtuoso Joseph Tawadros and the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra.

My training includes an undergraduate degree in composition from the Sydney Conservatorium of music as well as a masters from the Royal College of Music, London.
