Welcome to my website!I decided to create these pages in order to try to make my compositions and arrangements more widely known and available. I have lived in this part of Norway since 1985, playing the organ, conducting choirs, teaching the piano, writing music and, of course, playing for services, weddings, funerals and andakts.(Devotional gatherings)

I’m writing this in English because most Norwegian people understand English quite well, whereas almost no one in Britain has the least idea about anything in the Norwegian language. 

As you can see from the picture the landscape here is stunningly beautiful, and the weather can also be pretty good, although it has to be said that we do get a generous helping of wind, rain and storms. So when it’s nice, it’s very nice. But we get more than out fair share of grey rainy days and it’s nearly always windy. 

Norway is one of the few countries in the world where it is possible to be a full-time organist. Almost 10% of organists here are non-Norwegians. Most of my compositions and arrangements I have produced since I came to Norway have been written for choirs and people with whom I have worked. They are, generally speaking, very practical and performable. So I’d be happy if you’d like to use them.
