He graduated with distinction from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in 1995 and began his career working with prominent ensembles such as the London Sinfonietta and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. Forshaw has also held the position of Professor of Saxophone at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama since 2002.
