Harry

Hi there! My name's Harry, I’m 23 years old and I’ve recently graduated from Cardiff University - I studied Music and achieved First Class Honours in my degree, also receiving the David Evans Music Prize for achieving the highest grade on my course. I love helping musicians of all ages develop their skills and knowledge - I’m incredibly passionate about music, and my goal is to pass that passion on to other people, making learning music as fun and rewarding as possible.

Instruments
Trumpet: I have over 13 years of experience playing the trumpet, achieving Grade 8 through the Trinity exam board over 6 years ago. Since then, I've specialised in big band/jazz playing, but also have extensive brass band experience - I can teach you basic techniques for starting out on the instrument, as well as famous tunes, riffs and anything else you'd like to learn!
Guitar: I've been playing both the acoustic and electric guitar for many years, with a focus on fingerstyle with the acoustic and rhythm guitar on the electric. I'm able to teach you how to play your favourite song or riff, no matter the genre, as well as the fundamental skills needed to get to grips with the instrument.
Violin: I've been a violinist for over 14 years, also having achieved my Trinity Grade 8 over 6 years ago. I've been involved with numerous symphony orchestras, holding the position of leader of the orchestra in many of these - and I've also spent the longest time teaching this instrument. I can help you to understand the basics of the instrument, and the techniques that will improve your playing in no time!
Piano: My father is a professional piano player, and as such I've been exposed to the instrument from a young age. I'm knowledgeable on basic technique and theory, and can help beginners start out on the instrument, learning note names and basic music theory as well as fundamental skills and habits to develop.

Academic Tutoring
Having studied music through GCSEs, A-Levels and university, I’m highly knowledgeable in music theory and academic music practices, especially with the AQA Exam Board; I’m more than happy to provide extra support for current music students at any level.

If you’re looking to learn a new instrument, develop your theory skills, or improve your academic skills, I’d love to work with you - please feel free to reach out for a informal, no-pressure chat!
