About Simon

- What kind of experience do you have?

I have taught for several years and appeared at several major London venues including The Royal Albert Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall and Fairfield Hall, Croydon. I also appeared on the TV talent show Opportunity Knocks as a member of a local accordion band.

I studied Jazz and Contemporary Music at the City of Leeds Music College. My principal instruments were trombone and piano. I also taught piano accordion as an extra-curricular activity whilst there.

I started playing piano accordion at the age of seven and passed Trombone Grade 8 at the age of 14 and Euphonium Grade 8 at the age of 15.

I have extensive playing experience in the fields of classical and jazz music and have played with The Hillingdon Philharmonic Orchestra, Harrow Symphony Orchestra and Brunel University Big Band.

In addition to teaching, I also sing with the Uxbridge Gospel Male Voice Choir and the Free Church Choir Union.
