I'm a classically trained musician with a background in jazz and funk music. My main instrument is violoncello but I also play guitar, electric bass, piano, and some other stringed instruments. I've played in many different orchestras of various sizes and particularly enjoy playing in and writing for reduced string ensembles.

I'm good at understanding what a piece calls for and producing not only something that sounds nice to the ear but also is enjoyable to play and quick to come to life. Having played numerous gigs I've seen plenty of times when the music could have been perfect but there was a page turn that was impossible, one bar impossible to sight read because of bad stemming, or some key change that was put just in the worst possible spot on the page. I try and think ahead of those -and many other- sort of things in order to have the most efficient outcome possible.

My experience includes writing string section parts for rock bands, rearranging existing songs for symphonic and string orchestras, writing and preparing scores for gigging string quartets, trios, and baroque ensembles, and lately also arranging and preparing full folders for a six part wedding band. I have also almost always been playing the arrangements I wrote.

My main interest at the moment is writing arrangements for classical instruments, with a strong preference for strings.

I'm available to hire to:
Orchestrate and arrange music for any ensemble.
Engrave music from digital and non-digital sources.
Produce sheet music at a professional level for any application.

For any inquiries or custom proposals don't hesitate to write me a message.
