Many of his musical influences derive from the experience of working alongside entertaining and accomplished musicians and artists of different styles and genres.

“He put together a marvelous compilation for our horse to perform a dressage test to music at an international competition. Despite knowing nothing about horses, he quickly picked up exactly what was required. I rode the horse whilst he played some pieces of music, adjusting tempo and arrangements to suit. He then recorded it all onto a CD in his studio. The quality of the recording was outstanding and we were 2nd in the competition, with the judges giving 9 out of 10 for our music. Thank you! Your introduction to horses was a very happy and successful one!
