What do you like about your job and the company?
On a daily basis, 1000s travel to London to watch the Changing of the Guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace. Being able to perform regularly to a large audience gives any musician a feeling of achievement. I also like that Army musicians have the opportunity to travel. I have performed in Bermuda, Japan, USA and Canada, to name a few. I have also performed live on stage with Robbie Williams, Rod Stewart and Alicia Dixon.
Greatest achievements
The Queen’s Birthday Parade is probably the largest ‘gig’ of the year for Army Musicians. Being able to perform many times in front of HM The Queen has been a career highlight.
