First hearing the classical guitar on his family’s Julian Bream records, Jeremy was inspired to begin learning the instrument, and that spark carries through in his playing today. Jeremy received his Bachelor of Music from the Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University in 2020, graduating with distinction, three consecutive awards for academic excellence and the coveted guitar prize for best performance. He was also the first guitarist invited to participate in the Brisbane Club Award as a finalist, in the history of its institution at the Conservatorium. Jeremy studied with ARIA-winning guitarist Karin Schaupp and has participated in masterclasses with renowned guitarists such as Chrystian Dozza, András Csáki, Minh Le Hoang and Timothy Kain. As a concerto soloist, Jeremy was featured as a student with the QCGU symphony orchestra, and performed Nigel Westlake’s “Antarctica” with the Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra to a sold-out audience. In addition to his solo experience, Jeremy has performed with various ensembles in the Sunshine Coast Chamber Music Festival, Adelaide Guitar Festival, Tyalgum Music Festival and the Brisbane Festival. Ongoing chamber collaborations include a duo with Melbourne-Brisbane flautist Anna Rabinowicz, and the Jacaranda Guitar Quartet. Recent highlights include a performance residency at the European Masterpieces exhibit at GOMA, performing at the Griffith University graduations to over 2000 people, and in duo with Karin Schaupp in the Brisbane Music Festival. Jeremy is a passionate educator, having managed a busy private studio in Manly West for several years, and works as a guitar tutor at various educational facilities in the south-east of Brisbane. In 2022, Jeremy has been contracted for performances in Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales, and will release an album focusing on Australian music for solo classical guitar.
