He also works regularly as an orchestrator and arranger, from solo vocal arrangements, to full musical band orchestration.
Currently, Henry is touring the UK with Blood Brothers as Assistant Musical Director / Keys II.

Henry works frequently as an audition pianist for West End shows, U.K. Tours, and regional productions. Additionally, he works with actors and singers as an audition coach, providing services from one-on-one repertoire sessions, to recording live accompaniments for voice reels.
He is also the musical director and co-producer for In The Wings, a series of human interest interviews with composers, writers, and creatives of shows that have been recently postponed. Initially created during London’s first lockdown in 2020, In the Wings was a four-episode mini-series, and featured the first live performances with a West End cast in a theatre since the West End closed. Since then, the series has expanded to sixteen episodes, watched by over 150,000 viewers, and can be found on YouTube for free.
