What David brings to Opus 48
David's relaxed yet meticulous attitude towards music making is one of the principal things that makes participating in his rehearsals and concerts so rewarding: making excellent music in a enjoyable and often humorous way.
David's core focus is always on vocal technique and presentation. Through working solidly with the singers, David both develops and encourages personal development of a singer's natural ability and musicality, which in turn improves the performance of the choir as a whole. Emphasis on text and musicianship is also important and is often what singers working with David find most enriching.
As a resident of Oxfordshire for approaching two decades, David is fully committed to the local music scene and is passionate about making excellent music and bringing it to audiences both in and outside of Oxford.
