I'm from Merseyside U.K. I'm 47 and have played clarinet since I was 12. I was inspired to take it up because Acker Bilk's 'Stranger on the Shore was popular in England at the time!!!!!
I was lucky enough to have excellent teachers and ended up studying with Sidney Fell at the Royal Manchester College of Music (sadly no longer going)
My first job was as principal with the B.B.C. orchestra in Bristol (also no longer there, it's really not my fault) and I've just completed 20 years as 2nd & Eb with the B.B.C. Philharmonic based in Manchester.
I like to have other musical interests outside the orchestra. I dabbled with the saxophone for a while,mostly the soprano, I enjoyed playing sax 4tets.
I love early music, enjoying playing consort stuff and still struggling to learn the lute.
The latest craze is folk-music. I play whistles, concertina, bagpipes (Northumbrian & Irish) The struggle is to avoid hearing some unfamiliar instrument and thinking "I'd like to have a go on that"
I have a 7 year old son who keeps me young at heart and a clarinet-playing girlfriend who keeps me on my toes.
My hobbies include juggling and cycling, mostly strange machines, Moultons and recumbents and I attempted my first triathlon last year.
