Repertoire

This list represents all works conducted in performance, rehearsal and masterclass; plans for forthcoming projects; and all works prepared as an Assistant Conductor. I’m extremely open to discovering new composers and repertoire as well as existing masterworks I’ve not yet had the chance to perform. I’m currently developing programme ideas for conducted chamber ensemble, chamber orchestra, symphony orchestra and choral/orchestral forces and welcome collaborations with established ensembles, composers, musicians, festivals, venues and cross-artform practitioners.

Repertoire prepared for surtitling, subtitling and scorereading engagements is not included unless also studied for conducted projects but available on request.
