Organisations

David, a former chairman of BASCA, has been active in organisations and committees in the UK and Europe working on protecting the rights of composers and songwriters.   A founding co-Chairman of the British Academy of Composers and Songwriters, David has sat on several committees representing composers in the UK and in Europe, including being a Director of British Music Rights and a Trustee of the British Music Information Centre. 

David was commissioned to design and direct two UK Government funded projects: IN TUNE IN EUROPE (co-funded by the EU) and BUILDING MUSIC (an early Music Manifesto project), and he chaired the group designing the Composers in Education Database project for the European Composer and Songwriter Alliance, ECSA.

There is a tribute to David from BASCA here from when he retired from all committee work a few years ago.
