Charlotte is a composer who collects memories and moments in the form of music. Her compositions are inspired by her surroundings and her love of world travel. Her pieces aim to conjure an atmosphere or capture a fleeting moment. Having been bought up on a diet of classical music and jazz, her compositions borrow from both musical disciplines, resulting in her unique compositional voice.
Charlotte’s piano music has been published by EVC Music. She has also contributed to the Trinity College London piano exam syllabi. Her works have been performed in Europe and the USA. As an arranger, her work has been played on BBC Three Counties Radio and on BBC Radio York.
