Who’s Who in The Manwood Singers
Musical Director: David Smith
David attended the Royal College of Music and studied Early Music (Recorder), piano and composition. He then worked in London as a freelance pianist, harpsichordist, organist and conductor. Much of David’s career has been spent in the pits of London West End musical shows such as Mamma Mia, The Lion King, Wicked, Joseph, Cats, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Phantom of the Opera & Annie. Alongside this, teaching has always been a passion and he has been Head of Music in many different schools, most recently, Sir Roger Manwood’s School where he has been Director of Music for the past 8 years. David has directed many choirs and orchestras during his time in London and is delighted to take on the Directorship of The Manwood Singers. He is looking forward to all our concerts which will be full of musical gems.
