Having adjudicated the Swiss Open Championships – part of the World Music Festival at the KKL, Lucerne on 23 September, and the Italian Nationals on 11 November, David returned to Switzerland on 25 November to adjudicate the Swiss Nationals at Stravinsky Hall, Montreux.

With a stunning performance of John Pickard’s Eden, Valaisia Band under Arsene Duc impressed the most, and went on to take the Swiss National title for a third time in succession.

David will return to Lucerne to appear as guest soloist at the KKL during the 2018 World Music Festival, in concert with the Swiss Military Band.
