Robin has over fifteen years experience of conducting amateur, student and professional ensembles, in venues from local halls to St Paul’s Cathedral, London.

Since 2003 he has been Musical Director of Cantate, a 35 strong chamber choir based in Kent, performing works from the mediaeval to the present day.  Concerts have included; “Renaissance Revealed”, a 90 minute performance of music and images from Renaissance Italy, “Poetry in Music”, an evening celebrating English music and poetry, Mozart’s Requiem, and “Baroque Masterworks”, including Vivaldi’s Magnificat and Handel’s Dixit Dominus.  In 2008 the choir performed Bach’s St John Passion to great acclaim, and in 2009 will perform Handel’s Messiah in celebration of 250 years since the composer’s death.

Robin formed Vivace!, a chamber group using period instruments led by Hazel Brooks.  The group has performed with Cantate and has given concerts in its own right, in central London and Hampstead, with Robin leading from the harpsichord. 

Robin has been Conductor of Stanmore Choral Society, Horsley Choral Society, and deputy conductor of Uxbridge Choral Society.  He spent five years as conductor of the City University Chamber Choir (London), a role combining education with performance.  In this post Robin helped the choir undertake a week long trip to Bergen, Norway, to sing and share cultures with Norwegian and Romanian choirs with support from the Connect Youth European initiative.
