A graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, he is passionate about performance and education. Whilst at Guildhall, Neil was pianist and assistant MD to the Guildhall Jazz Singers who performed regularly throughout London.

He has recorded with several ensembles and bands, co-produced a big band album, and has continued working regularly with various singers and musicians, live and in studio, including showcases in Switzerland.
