Double Bass

Originally from Brighton, David studied at both the Royal College of Music (RCM) under Thomas Martin and the Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM) under Ronan Dunne. He has enjoyed a varied freelance career working with orchestras and chamber orchestras throughout the UK.

Now living in the Sussex countryside, he enjoys muddy dog walks that end up in a good pub!
