Certain Sound 2023 Mix Drop

Polska - Drumfunk Selection (Almost All Undesginated Edit)| Certain Sounds 2023 Mix Drop

David’s love of music began with his fascination with the church organ, at the age of three years lying on the floor of the church every Sunday, being mesmerised by the organist playing the foot pedals! He continually asked his mum and dad to let him have piano lessons. Finally his mum asked a Piano Teacher for his opinion, (knowing that he didn’t teach children until the age of seven). The teacher spotted David’s potential, even though he was only five at the time, he started lessons the next week!

He attended Oldham Hulme Grammar School and then went to Oldham Sixth Form College to take A Levels. He went on to Study at The Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester (2000/2004) gaining his BA/GradRNCM. David studied with Darius Battiwalla, Ronald Frost, Jeffery Makinson and Jeremy Young, and participated in Master Classes with:- Nicolas Kynaston, Colin Walsh, David Sanger, David Briggs, Graham Barber, Kevin Bowyer, Naji Hakim, Dame Gillian Weir, and Jacques van Oortmerssen. His training was continued at the Royal Northern College of Music as part of the degree programme. The course was so thorough, that as well as advice and training in the teaching of the Organ, David had an entire year of specialist training from Judith Burton on the teaching of the Piano.

David has been employed as Director of Music of Holy Innocents Church, Fallowfield and as School Organist at Bury Church of England High School. 

From 2001 to 2012,  he has been Director of Music at St. Paul’s Parish Church, Royton, running a small choir which sang at Morning Service with Choral Evensong once a month. David also ran a very successful Music Club, which he recently took on a visit to the Bridgewater Hall, all pupils played individually on the stage. The music club have played in concerts at various venues, three times in presence of the Mayor of Oldham. David has also been an accompanist at Oldham Choir for two years up until recently.

David was Assistant Director of Music at St George's Church Stockport , where he trained the Choral Scholars, and accompanied the choir for all services. 


From 2013 to 2018 he was organist at St Saviour's Church, Great Moor, Stockport. In 2018 he became the Director of Music at St Wilfrid’s, Mobberley, Cheshire. 

When David was at RNCM, he was invited to play as a Guest Organ Virtuoso in a concert for the Mayor of Rochdale which featured Organ, Brass Band and Vocal Performances.
Other highlights in David’s career include a Dedication Service at Chester Cathedral, the Requiem by Duruflé with the King Edward Choral Society in Macclesfield and a Benediction Service at Manchester Cathedral.

He is requested to play at many churches in the area for weddings and funerals and other events. David is a regular visitor to The Island of St. Vincent in the Caribbean where his Grandmother lives. He has, from a very early age, given Organ Recitals at St. Vincent’s Cathedral and the Methodist Church and these have been broadcast on local radio.

Since then, further studies at Edge Hill University have led to him becoming a busy teacher, both of junior choirs and keyboard players. David is also in great demand as an accompanist and an improviser across Manchester and has seen service with Oldham Choir, Smithy Belles Choir and Rossendale Ladies Choir.
