Biography

David’s love of music and opera started young as he crept onto the landing to listen whenever his parents played opera LPs. After decades of being distracted from music by various day jobs, founding Bachtrack brought music into his working life, especially reviewing opera. David has written and still maintains the software that makes Bachtrack tick; he also does the company’s finances and HR and oversees the editorial side of the site in four languages. When not skiing (his preferred activity), David sings, plays guitar and tennis, swims and cooks. He occasionally writes blog posts on polything.com on anything not to do with classical music, which means mostly about food. David's past working life includes ERP software with Sage, Professional Audio equipment with Harman, communications equipment with a previous startup, Alfa Systems, computer design with Sinclair Research and semiconductors with Fairchild.
