Simon Rushby

Hello! I'm Simon Rushby, a music teacher, author, composer, examiner and performer.

You can find information about all my educational resources and teaching work here. I'm the author of ABRSM's Discovering Music Theory, GCSE and A Level Music guides and many other books and articles about music. I often work as a music education consultant for schools and other education providers, and I'm an examiner for ABRSM.

I'm also a keyboard player and singer in a number of bands, covering a range of styles, and an experienced pianist, accompanist, MD of theatre shows and conductor of choral and instrumental groups (adult and young people). Please get in touch if you're interested in booking me or any of the ensembles I work with.

You can find out more about my songwriting and composing work here. I write music for TV, music for piano and songs which have charted around the world.


Please get in touch if you'd like to discuss online tuition for GCSE/A Level Music, music theory or composition, or if I can support you or your school as a mentor, consultant or music recruitment specialist.
