David is delighted to announce that he will become the new Editor of Brass Band Magazine, following the announcement that Philip Harper is stepping down from the role to pursue other interests after six years in charge.

In his new role David will commission and coordinate the abundance of topics that Brass Band World covers each month. These include items such as the latest news and events, debates, competition retrospectives and discussion, professional advice, rankings, reviews, and much, much more. He will also provide his own ‘Editor’s View’ in each new issue.

Managing and Editorial Director Nicola Bland will work closely with David to produce the magazine on behalf of Kapitol Media, and is highly enthusiastic about the new appointment. She commented:

"The legacy of quality that has been the hallmark of Philip's editorship will go forward with David, who has conquered just about every performance, recording and award accolade. His cross-genre international profile, comprehensive musical knowledge and strong commitment to education and youth development offers BBW such an exciting future. He is keen to be in regular contact with BBW's audience, reinforcing the magazine's strong hard copy and social media presence. We are really delighted that David has accepted the editorship!"

Finally, speaking of this latest endeavour in his artistic portfolio, David commented:

"Brass Bands have been an important part of my life for as long as I can remember, and it is with great pride that I have accepted the position following in some very significant footsteps. BBW is the movement's premier monthly publication and I'm very excited about the future and look forward to being part of the magazine's continued development."
