David writes his own compositions for classical, flamenco and steel-strung acoustic guitar. His compositions fuse contemporary classical music, flamenco and jazz and are played in both traditional and open tunings. Also David arranges well-known compositions in his own unique style.
His style reflects his eclectic musical taste. David not only composes for solo guitar but also incorporates flamenco dancing, oriental percussion and singing in his work. This brings a fresh perspective and creative energy to his playing style.
"Your playing is excellent and your compositions are lovely. I wish you great success, you certainly deserve it." - Gordon Giltrap.
Born in Southend-on-Sea, England in 1981, David began learning the classical guitar at the age of seven. He later gained an interest for flamenco and jazz. He won his first guitar competition at the age of ten.
In 1997 David enlisted to study jazz and classical music at Leeds College of Music, England. He studied here for three years under the tutelage of Luigi Palumbo(classical guitar) and left with the much coveted college guitar prize.
David then went to further his studies in Seville, the capital of flamenco with guitarists such as Fran Cortés, Miguel Iglesias and Manuel Berraquero. David still studies the accompaniment of Cante and Baile in Seville.
David has performed in England, Ireland, Denmark, Holland, Spain, Germany, and France with shows such as Fame, Carmen and West Side Story as well as performing as a solo artist and guitar demonstrator.
He has made numerous television appearances and appeared at the Rhythms in the City Festival, Leeds, the Funk, Soul and Jazz Festival, London and the Edinburgh Festival, Scotland.

Hi, and thanks for the friendship! The Danish composer Per Nørgård's music has been much on my mind the past few years. Arguably the most important now living Scandinavian composer also has a remarkable output for the guitar. I spent a couple of years working with the composer on this repertoire, spanning from 1973 to 2000, in order to embrace the emerging performance practice associated with his work.
I have just uploaded 10 new tracks, all taken from "Tales From the North", my double CD box with the complete guitar works of Danish composer Per Nørgård. Also, in my latest blog you will find recent reviews of this release.
For further reading about the composer, this is an excellent website, with articles by a series of scholars and performers that have dedicated much study to his work:
