The musician, whose work was broadcast on BBC Radio 2, appeared in a ‘pivotal’ episode of EastEnders in 2002 alongside his Alban Voices choir, his website states.

Robin’s last album with the choir, American Choral Classics, was released in 2023.

According to his website, Robin trained at Imperial College, London and the Royal College of Music, studying conducting with Vernon Handley and orchestration with Bryan Kelly.
Throughout his expansive career, Robin worked with countless choirs and orchestras, and had some of his arrangements featured by the Australian Pops Orchestra in Melbourne.
