Based in London, I write about classical music and particularly about the classical guitar. I was News Editor for the British monthly magazine Classical Guitar for 25 years, which became Classical Guitar magazine, a quarterly magazine published in the USA, in 2015; I wrote for the US Classical Guitar as a contributing editor until it ceased publication in 2019.

I have been contributing to the wonderful monthly classical guitar magazine Gendai Guitar in Japan since 1990, initially with a ‘Letter from London‘ as well as interviews and articles, and more recently I have been writing a series of monthly articles on the Early Life of Julian Bream.

I have been writing a blog about flamenco since July 2010 called My Flamenco Diary.

I work as an editor of books on Arabic and Spanish language, history, philosophy, oriental manuscripts and music. I have contributed to the German contemporary composer dictionary, KDG – Komponisten der Gegenwart.
