Hello, and welcome. My name is James Millichap. I am currently studying for my Master's of Music in Composition at Bath Spa University, after successfully completing my BA (Hons) in Music here.

 

 

I am a Composer, who has worked on a variety of projects, ranging from neo-classical to modern and contemporary music.

From September 2017 to July 2018 I shall be the Musician in Residence at Old Swinford Hospital School, carrying out and performing duties within the Music Department.

​

​

During my time at University, I was appointed President of the Concert Orchestra Society, responsible for rehearsing and organising charity concert events, in aid of the Lullaby Trust, and Macmillan Cancer Research. I have also worked with many different visiting professional ensembles and groups within and outside of the University. 

​

​

Many of the projects I have worked on in composition cover different aspects and styles of music. I have arranged and orchestrated various Opera arias and works for myself and fellow students, as part of outreach projects to get children interested in Opera, and have worked on many solo and ensemble pieces, including duets, quartets and quintets. I have also worked on various collaborative projects, with fellow composers, and other disciplines, such as Dance. Currently I am working on a one act Operetta for my final project as part of my Master's.

 

​

I also provide lessons in Piano/Flute/Saxophone/Voice. I have acquired 3 high levels for grade 8 on Piano, Flute and Saxophone, and am an experienced vocalist, having performed many solo pieces,  and chorus works.
