About James
I am a composer working mainly on music for the theatre and installations. Currently, I am based in Edinburgh after graduating form the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I have taught composition, music theory and drums for 4 years, offering tuition up to Grade 8 ABRSM level as well as guiding students through compositional techniques to help them attain their personal musical goals. As a composer my credits include work at the National Theatre, Barbican, Royal Scottish Conservatoire, Edinburgh Fringe and more.
Details of all my projects above can be found at my website - jamesallenmusic.co.uk

In this series of lessons students can expect a tailored experience centred around their chosen DAW, taught by a Guildhall School of Music and Drama Graduate. Topics covered would range from beginner to advanced and would include
- Basic Navigation and Workflow
- Creative and Production FX (Compression, EQ, Delay, Reverb)
- Synthesis (digital or analogue if student owns outboard)
- Looping and Sequencing (mainly applicable to Ableton 11)
- Mixing and Mastering
- Creative Strategies for Electronic Music Production
Currently I am unable to offer in person tuition but have a reduced price for virtual sessions.
My Philosophy
I believe the joy of music should be central to all musical education and in my lessons I will always aim to maintain your love of your music whilst providing you with the knowledge to progress your musicianship and creative strategies.

I'm an experienced musician, and I came to James for help with harmony and orchestration. He was very attentive to what my needs were, and prepared many helpful demonstrations and exercises that have remained useful to me beyond our lessons together. I would confidently recommend him to anyone looking to develop their knowledge of music composition, harmony, and orchestration.
I worked with James last year to brush up on my Logic Pro skills. Really enjoyable, we had some great lessons and I learned a lot.
lessons with James are fun and engaging. He’s a very patient and encouraging teacher- highly recommend!
James' lessons in music theory got me through my grade 5 theory exam that I was dreading. He made it fun and accessible and we always worked at a pace that suited me!
James is an understanding and enthusiastic tutor who allowed me to learn at my own pace. Really pleased with my progression !!
