Jeffery is one of the country’s foremost composers and educators, equally at home in classical, contemporary and jazz music. He studied composition at the Royal College of Music with John Lambert and Herbert Howells and later with Aladar Majorossy, Gordon Jacob and Olivier Messiaen. He has about 150 works in the repertoire with over a third of them published. He has been composer in residence in many European cities and with some notable orchestras including the London Festival Orchestra, London Mozart Players and the Northern Sinfonia. Jeffery performs in recital with pianists Tim Watts and Henk Alkema, with the contemporary quartet ‘Saxology’ and his own band ‘The Reduced History of Jazz’. A recent and exciting project is with the creative performance and education based trio ‘ReedPlay’ although he continues to perform with numerous jazz and new music ensembles.
