Additional Info:

My name is David Townhill. I am a grade 8 and above standard pianist with many years experience as an accompanist and rehearsal pianist. Part of a musical family, I have been playing and performing since I was 5 years old. As a result I have excellent sight reading skills and can accompany sensitively to the needs of any performer.

Over the last 5 years I have been rehearsal pianist for the Dunbar Choral Society performing such works as Handel's Messiah, Brahms' Requiem, Vivaldi's Gloria and Vaughan Williams' Donna Nobis Pacem. I have also rehearsed the Dunbar Lyric Theatre Group and performed for shows such as Anything Goes, The Pajama Game, The Sound of Music and Oliver!

I regularly play piano for solo performers, for example, with a solo vocalist when working for the charity Music in Hospitals performing war time classics and popular songs from across the eras.

I have been playing keyboards for over ten years with Stow College Glasgow, the University of the West of Scotland and various Edinburgh Fringe Festival groups. Shows include West Side Story, 42nd Street, the Witches of Eastwick and Little Shop of Horrors.

In addition to piano I am an accomplished viola player and recently played at the inaugural Public Sector awards at the Scottish Parliament.

I privately teach piano, violin and viola. I compose and arrange music, play for weddings and other special occasions and get involved in innovative Edinburgh musical projects including the Tinderbox Project, Decagram, Mantra and more.
