About Rory
I am a 27 year-old jazz trombonist/educator/composer. I am the winner of Rising Star in the 2017 British Jazz Awards, and was voted as a runner-up in the Trombonist of The Year 2016. I was chosen as ‘One To Watch’ in the Shape of Jazz To Come section of Jazzwise 2018 and was announced a winner of the 2018 British Trombone Society Awards. I was also a finalist in the Carl Fontana Jazz Trombone Competition at the International Trombone Festival in California.
Born and raised in Yorkshire, England via Fife, Scotland, I am now based in London having graduated from Royal Academy of Music with first class honours. I have been fortunate to have played with some of the most internationally-acclaimed musicians in the world such as Chris Potter, Dave Holland, Elliot Mason, Ingrid Jensen, Dennis Rollins, Newton Faulkner, Claire Martin, Alan Barnes, Liane Carroll, Dave Douglas, Evan Parker and Dave Liebman. I have also played with many groundbreaking ensembles including BBC Big Band, Mike Gibbs Big Band, Guy Barker Big Band, Syd Lawrence Orchestra, Whirlwind Recordings Jazz Orchestra, Claire Teal Mini Big Band, London Concert Orchestra and Jonny Mansfield’s Elftet. I have performed at prestigious venues/festivals across Europe, including Royal Festival Hall, Barbican, Bimhuis (Amsterdam), Jamboree (Barcelona) and the Royal Albert Hall, where I was a featured soloist!
In 2018, I set up my own quartet that have since toured Europe and played at many high-profile British jazz festivals/venues (inc. Love Supreme Festival, EFG London Jazz Festival, Pizza Express Dean St. and Ronnie Scott’s). I was the featured artist in Jazzwise’s “Taking Off” section in summer 2019, and interviewed on BBC Radio 3 discussing my other project, Parliamentary Jazz Award nominated Bonsai who released a new record in 2019 on Ubuntu Music, receiving much critical acclaim. I am proud to be endorsed by Michael Rath Trombones.

I am a dedicated, energetic and very hard-working educator with an optimistic and ambitious creative output. I am committed to instilling confidence within students of any ability, approaching each project with a very open-minded attitude.
Each lesson is tailored to the individual where I'll offer a step-by-step guide to furthering your musical abilities and reaching your true potential! You'll leave each lesson feeling inspired and motivated to practise!
My lessons are for any age, ability, and background.
Typical lesson lengths range from 30 mins to 90 mins depending on the student's exact needs (to be discussed in free consultation)
I have over 10 years of experience educating from primary school to conservatoire and beyond, from age 7 to 70, to students who have never played before to professional musicians in need of a boost of inspiration.
It's never too late to learn to play music!
