Richard was an open scholar at the Royal Academy of Music where he won the Julian Bream Prize, the string players prize and the Academy's highest award: the Recital Diploma.
He has premiered solo works by Roger Steptoe, Peter Dickinson, Martin Butler, Anthony Powers and Arie Laysch (at the Purcell Room) and broadcast solos on BBC Radio 3. He has performed as a concerto soloist frequently-including at the South Bank and St. Martin-in-the Fields in London, and in Cape Town.
On leaving college, he successfully auditioned for the 'Live Music Now' scheme with flautist Ileana Ruhemann with whom he broadcast a live recital from Broadcasting House on BBC Radio 3 as well as studio recordings.
He is much in demand as an ensemble player, playing at the BBC Proms, an extensive international tour with Tetra and in the Alibas flute and guitar duo who have played in France, Spain, South Africa and Kenya.
