About Sasha
I hold a PhD in Music, the research for which involved investigation into the praxis of a notable living composer and the organising of the principal archival collection for said composer. I am also a professional musician in my right, meaning that I am well placed to advise on both intellectual and vocational facets of university-level study.

Both in Higher Education (where I have devised and delivered original lectures on university undergraduate courses) and in my freelance work, I have a strong track record in inspiring students in their studies, accomplished through analysis of what makes a given concept both challenging and stimulating. By remaining engaged personally in learning and research, I remain conscious of the difficulty in mastering new concepts and topics, and harness this lived experience to relate to the perspective of a student. I strive to make my advice to students simultaneously ambitious and achievable, so that they can make effective progress in which they can take pride. My familiarity with the exigencies around academic writing has been honed by my own academic research, concerned as it is with living subjects and bringing to light new archival sources. This has forced me to reflect on scholarly discourse, how it operates, and the rationale for its conventions, many of which I have had to customise or adapt to idiosyncratic situations. In particular, I have had to deliberate closely upon the house styles for citations, since the various archival and multimedia sources I use are not always amenable to archetypal referencing conventions. At the crux of this deliberation is a reflection on the purpose of such citations and on how to ensure scholarly transparency. Accordingly, I am ideally placed to advise students on how to write and present on their academic work effectively, and impress upon them why it matters.

Sasha accompanied my son for his Grade 8 ABRSM Singing exam. They had a rehearsal a few days before the exam where they ran through the pieces together to make final adjustments etc. He was helpful and friendly at all stages. Sasha is an accomplished player and was highly professional and reliable. I would certainly recommend him to other students.
Sasha is very dedicated tutor who makes your own goals his personal goal.
I had approached Sasha to accompany my daughter on her ARSM Diploma exam, not just in the capacity of an accompanist, but also as a coach who can guide her performance and correct as necessary. Sasha did an exemplary job of this, and in a short span of time, my daughter was able to progress to the level needed for the exam.
Sasha is always so generous with his time in giving feedback. He explains in a lot of detail what the student needs to do, to improve and I find this a very respectable, rare and unique quality as I have had accompanists in the past who have been so hasty to leave and giving some form of feedback was an inconvenience.
Sasha also immensely helped out with the kit for the recording as well as an unbelievable amount of post-recording support in terms of submitting the clip to ABRSM.
We are forever grateful for this support.
Sasha also teaches Maths - i only found this out quite late or I would have enrolled Maths classes for my daughter with Sasha too, which I have no doubt would be a very productive experience.
Overall, we could not have asked for a better experience. Sasha truly is one in a million and to work with his is simply an absolute pleasure.
I highly recommend Sasha - he is in a league of his own!
Thank you so much Sasha xSasha was warm and energetic in providing guidance and piano accompaniment to my son in preparation for his grade 1 saxophone exam, which we are pleased to say resulted in a Merit outcome.
Sasha has provided expert, tailored and exceptional music aural training to my children. His up to date knowledge of each syllabus, plus the ability to create bespoke sessions, has ensured success in exams and auditions over a number of years, and no doubt many more to come.
