About Will C
Will is a guitarist, music tutor, artist, composer, and lecturer, based in Cambridge, has held academic/lecturing positions in Music Performance Studies, Composition, and Musicology/music academia at university level here in Cambridge for over three years.
In 2015 Will graduated from Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge with an Upper First Class mark in a BA (Hons) Music degree, and alongside majoring in Contemporary Composition and Musicology, he was also awarded the Mark Devin Music Performance Prize for outstanding achievement in his Performance studies. As an artist and performer, Will has been commission by the likes of Tate, Kettle's Yard Gallery, Arts Council England, Stanley Picker Gallery, British School at Rome, Cambridge Zoology Museum, Club Inégales, Wysing Arts Centre, Cambridge School of Art, and The Paul Hamlyn Foundation, as well as working alongside a range of esteemed musicians/ensembles.
Will began playing the Classical Guitar when he was 8 years old, and by his early teens was performing regularly, alongside having also taught himself at great length how to play the electric, acoustic, and bass guitars. As a teenage guitarist Will achieved a Grade 8 Distinction in Classical Guitar (and equivalent theory qualifications), and now specialises in mostly contemporary repertoire, premiering several new works, with recent concerts at Aldeburgh Festival (Jubilee Hall); West Road Concert Hall, Cambridge; and the Mumford Theatre, Cambridge.
Alongside this, Will has spent many years performing in pop/rock bands, usually as principal songwriter, lead guitarist, keyboardist, synthesizer player, electronic musician, and backing vocalist. In these arenas Will employs a focus on translating his classical training into a more popular language, and experimenting with the sonic possibilities of both analogue and digital guitar-based technologies. This work has seen Will perform internationally, appearing at several major venues and festivals.
Will is also a member and former student ambassador of the British Association for Performing Arts Medicine (BAPAM), and as such can offer specialised musicians’ healthcare and wellbeing advice, including regarding posture, physical maintenance, performance anxiety, and more.
Will primarily teaches at home, in the centre of Cambridge, where he has a dedicated and sound-proofed music/teaching room, with very high quality listening facilities, big screen...
