I’m a founder, musician and teacher. I love to make new things happen!

Connect with me on LinkedIn or check out my music. My email is ed@edscolding.co.uk.

A few things I do:

• Build & grow: I’m the co-founder of Greenwich Music School with my wife, pianist Bethan Scolding. We’ve grown the organisation year by year into an award-winning music education charity, known for excellence and professionalism, and reaching hundreds of families across South-East London - including dozens of children supported by bursaries each term.

• Compose music: I create music for concerts, film, media and collaborations. Highlights include an award-winning score for the indie feature Mile End, music broadcast on BBC Radio 3, and tracks for BBC Radio 4 drama productions. I trained at the Royal Academy of Music with a Master’s degree in composition.

• Advise: My strategic and advisory work includes consultancy, judging panels, career advice workshops, and two three-year terms on the board of the Independent Society of Musicians (ISM), with a particular focus on professional development for musicians.
