Chris Robinson

Living in Ipswich, United Kingdom

I am a working composer and arranger, aged 61, my wife is a midwife, my son is an opera singer, my daughter is an artist - and we have 2 dogs, Ben & Echo. We have recently moved back to Suffolk to be nearer my wife's family.

After a fascinating 27 years in British Army music, I trained as a music teacher and worked for 9 years in a high school classroom in Bedfordshire, England. I retired early from teaching 6 years ago, had a period of improving my Sibelius technique and trying to interest pubishers in my work, together with a 'day job' at the Environment Agency - from which I have now retired.

During my army music days, I composed and arranged a great deal of stuff, for my own regimental band - all with a particular purpose at the time. I quickly learned that customised music was rewarding and greatly appreciated by all - especially the performers, who knew when and why the music was written.

I am now pursuing my orchestral and band horn-playing, professional conducting and private teaching; and widening my horizons as a composer/arranger by working at my own publishing & music copying business - JULIAN MUSIC - using Sibelius as my main tool.

The business supplies 'hand made' music scores and parts for customers at reasonable costs. You can find a link to julianmusic.co.uk on this home page and also on my on-line store. Please visit the web site and browse through the new catalogue of wind, vocal and string music.

The JULIAN MUSIC on-line store at Sibelius Music is shop window for my entire output which can be seen and purchased as performance-ready hard copy of the scores and parts of everything I sell.

It is constantly being added to and expanded. Most things have been 'road-tested with bands, orchestras, ensembles and choirs. If there is anything you really need for a concert performance or show, which no-one else has done to your individual specifications, please email me and discuss your ideas - at any time.

Cheers, Chris Robinson.
