Hello! I come from both a Classical and Jazz music background with an emphasis on teaching through listening with the ears and exploring the student's sound. I've studied saxophone with Classical saxophonist Kyle Horch and currently with Jim Corry of Jamiroquai, and have a scholarship to study Pop Piano with Andrew Hickley at Leeds Conservatoire.
I think it's important to have a thorough grasp of technique and theory but the most important thing is to be creating music and having fun!
I'm an experienced guitarist and guitar tutor, and have gigged in Bangkok, London and Leeds in various bands and ensembles.
While living in London I busked full time while touring and gigging with 'The Long Game' and 'Amalie Bryde'. I'm currently studying at Leeds Conservatoire and have recorded and gigged with 'Soapbox Marathon' and 'Nick Keating', as well as being a frequent collaborator with various other artists in the Leeds area.

Brilliant tutor who I've known for a couple of years now that has supported me in my saxophone playing. Rowan is a very knowledgable player who is great at teaching and has laid out the stepping stones for me to achieve my goals as a musician. Thoroughly recomend to anyone who is just starting out and needs that extra push to start their journey as a fully fledged saxophone player and I trust that any driven individual will be able to achieve whatever goals you have under the guidance of Rowan
