Jasper graduated his Bachelor’s degree in clarinet with first class honours in 2022 and is currently undertaking his Masters of Performance both at the Royal College of Music.

Iain is originally from the Isle of Arran in Scotland and has been the Royal College of Music’s Gilbert and Eileen Edgar and Anthony Saltmarsh collaborative pianist since September 2022, working with their woodwind, brass and percussion departments. He works collaboratively and orchestrally around the UK and abroad, with notable partnerships including saxophonist Richard Scholfield, cellist Lavinnia Rae, horn player Olivia Gandee, and frequent orchestral work with the London Philharmonic Orchestra (including tours to Poland and Belgium), the London Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia Orchestra, English Chamber Orchestra and Britten Sinfonia.
His debut album recording of the Concerto for Two Pianos (Eight Hands) and Wind Quintet by Malcolm Williamson is due to be released late 2024 / early 2025.
