winning an Organ Scholarship to Peterhouse in Cambridge in 1995. He studied at Cambridge
for four years, gaining a degree in Music and directing Peterhouse Chapel Choir as well as
studying the organ under Peter Hurford and Anne Page. It was whilst at Cambridge that
David met Louise and they began performing together, debuting at the Llangollen
International Eisteddfod in North Wales in 1996.

Since leaving Cambridge David has pursued a varied musical life. He is currently organist
and choirmaster of St Paul's Church, Cardiff, and directs 'Voces Petrensium', a choir for
former singers of Peterhouse. He has accompanied choirs in many of the great UK cathedrals.

spotted in the Bass section of choirs as diverse as the BBC National Chorus of Wales and
Llandaff Cathedral Choir.

In his spare time, father of eight David is an avid fan of needlepoint and crosstitch.
