We've not long returned from a great tour to China and Korea! Here's a short highlight reel from our trip:

It was great to be back at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, working with the clarinet students on various aspects of playing in an orchestral clarinet section!

I'm delighted to join Vandoren Paris and Vandoren UK as an officially endorsed Artist! Having used Vandoren products for pretty much my entire playing life, it’s great to deepen my connection with them by joining as an Artist! Photo © Fraser Band / Vandoren UK

It was such a treat to visit the Buffet Crampon showroom and factory in Mantes, to select my new pair of clarinets. I'm so delighted with my new Festival clarinets - thank you to the whole team and especially to Euan Meikle!!

I recently spent an evening with Matthew and Campbell from Zip Tie Studio, recording some solo works for clarinet - From Galloway by James MacMillan, Abîme Des Oiseaux by Messiaen and Duft by Kaija Saariaho - all of which are connected by nature. Thank you to both for their ultimate professionalism and skill - excited to hear the final product!
