Ymchwil
Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil yn gorwedd yn bennaf mewn cerddoriaeth Brydeinig ers 1900 ac mae fy ngwaith yn canolbwyntio ar ddadansoddi cerddoriaeth, dehongli, astudiaeth braslunio, lle a thirwedd, ac agweddau ar fywgraffiad, cyd-destun a hunaniaeth genedlaethol. Rwyf wedi cyd-olygu llyfrau ar gyfer Gwasg Prifysgol Caergrawnt ar Peter Maxwell Davies (2009), Michael Tippett (2013) a Harrison Birtwistle (2015). Mae ei gyhoeddiadau eraill yn cynnwys Peter Maxwell Davies, Selected Writings (CUP, 2017), The Music of Peter Maxwell Davies (Boydell & Brewer, 2020) a phennod yn A History of Welsh Music (CUP, 2022). Cyhoeddwyd cyfrol olygedig, The Symphony in Britain and Ireland since 1900: A Critical History, gan Wasg Prifysgol Caergrawnt ym mis Awst 2026.
Addysgu
Gan redeg ochr yn ochr â'm gweithgareddau ymchwil, mae gen i ddiddordeb proffesiynol ym mhob maes addysg ar lefel AU, yn enwedig mewn perthynas â gwella'r profiad addysgol i ddysgwyr, archwilio dulliau gwahanol o asesu, gwella adborth i fyfyrwyr, prosesau sicrhau ansawdd ac addysg wedi'i gwella gan dechnoleg. Rwyf wedi dyfeisio, gweithredu a chynnal prosiectau a rhaglenni ar raddfa fawr, ac mae gen i brofiad rheoli arweinyddiaeth a lefel uwch sylweddol hefyd.
Rwy'n Uwch Gymrawd yr Academi Addysg Uwch (SFHEA) ac mae gen i Dystysgrif Ôl-raddedig mewn Addysgu a Dysgu Prifysgolion (PCUTL).
Bywgraffiad
Graddiodd o Brifysgol Caerdydd, lle cwblheais BMus (1994) a MMus (1995), cyn derbyn PhD ym 1999 am astudiaeth ddadansoddol o Drydedd Symffoni Syr Peter Maxwell Davies ochr yn ochr â phortffolio o gyfansoddiadau gwreiddiol. Mae fy ngyrfa academaidd wedi cyfuno addysgu, ymchwil, arweinyddiaeth ac ehangu cyfranogiad yn y dyniaethau. Rhwng 2005 a 2007, gwasanaethais fel Darlithydd mewn Cerddoriaeth a Dirprwy Gadeirydd y rhaglen MA mewn Cerddoriaeth yn y Brifysgol Agored. Ymunais wedyn ag Is-adran Addysg Broffesiynol a Pharhaus Prifysgol Caerdydd, lle cydlynais y rhaglen Dyniaethau rhwng 2008 a 2017. Cefais fy mhenodi'n Uwch Ddarlithydd mewn Cerddoriaeth ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd yn 2016, dyrchafwyd yn Ddarllenydd mewn Cerddoriaeth yn 2021, ac yn Athro Cerddoriaeth yn 2026. Rhwng 2023 a 2026, gwasanaethais hefyd fel Pennaeth yr Ysgol Cerddoriaeth.

Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
Rwyf wedi llwyddo i oruchwylio PhD ar Revelation and Fall Peter Maxwell Davies a dros 30 traethawd MA traethawd hir.
Ar hyn o bryd rwy'n goruchwylio 8 myfyriwr PhD.
- Byddwn yn croesawu ymholiadau gan y rhai sydd â diddordeb mewn ymchwil PhD i unrhyw agwedd ar gerddoriaeth Brydeinig yr 20fed a'r 21ain ganrif, yn enwedig Peter Maxwell Davies a cherddoriaeth gelf Cymru. Anogir y rhai sydd â diddordeb mewn cerddoriaeth yr 20fed ganrif yn fwy cyffredinol hefyd i gysylltu â mi.
