David Black was born in 1978 in Bangor, North Wales, and began playing the guitar at the age of 10. In 2000 he graduated with First Class Honours from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama where he studied with Allan Neave. In 2004 he completed an MMus at the Royal College of Music, London, studying with Gary Ryan.
David regularly performs solo, as one half of the 'Albach Guitar Duo' and is a member of the contemporary music group 'rarescale'. Recent concerts have taken him to Germany and San Francisco where he gave a concert for the 'Old Firsts' Series.
He currently teaches guitar at Blackheath, Old Palace, St Olave's, and Crown Woods schools, and lives in South East London.
The Albach Duo's debut CD - 'The Raw And The Cooked' - was launched earlier this year with a sold out concert at Blackheath Halls. Follow the links below for sample tracks...
