David’s Melody (for strings)
2007 – David’s Melody, for junior string orchestra. The first performance was on 05/07/08 by the Lowry Strings Conducted by Colin Green
A short piece of about 4 minutes in length which would suit a junior string orchestra. Melodic and lush. It was written in memory of my good friend, David Shields, who is sadly no longer with us. David was a great recorder player and wonderful musician.

Dear Ian,
Thank you very much for that generous and encouraging comment. I try hard to make all the parts as interesting as I can and keep variety throughout.
Many thanks
Gerry.
