He first came to prominence by winning a number of prizes for accompaniment in major song competitions, including the Kathleen Ferrier Award, the Wigmore Hall Singing Competition and others. He has a remarkably busy performing schedule, working not just with the leading singers of his generation, but with young musicians too, notably at the Royal Northern College of Music, where he is International Tutor in Piano Accompaniment.
