About Ryan

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have been playing the Saxophone for over 12 years. During that time I have played in many different groups, performing in many different styles; such as jazz/big band, classical, rock, folk and free improvisation. I also have around 8 years of experience as a guitarist, playing in number of rock/indie bands.

As a composer, I have had my music performed by a number of professional ensembles and orchestras in the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland and Holland. Although my training is classical, I am very enthusiastic and sympathetic about all styles of music, so I am more than happy to consult anyone with any projects they might have.

- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

I am in the process of receiving my CRB certificate.
