"Inspirational"

Claire first began leading a choir when invited to cover for the choir master at her church when she was just 14. Since then, she has been involved in a range of musical projects, voluntary and professional, and has been running Four Hills Music with Martyn since its inception in 2007. 

​

Currently her conducting covers community singing projects and church choirs around North Enfield and Barnet.  She is also a qualified counsellor, and as such has the privilege of witnessing the power of healing through music and singing.  She very much regards her musical and therapeutic works as complementary.

​

As a vocal soloist and as an alto section member, she has performed with a variety of groups, including Enfield Choral Society, North London Brass, English Jazz Orchestra and Adoramus Choir.  She has performed in a number of venues, including the Watford Coliseum, Hertford Theatre and St Paul's Cathedral, and further afield touring Italy, France and Turkey.
