He learned to play piano at the town’s landmark Crooked Spire church and for many years took part in the Chesterfield Festival, where he contributed some of his greatest early lessons in performance. "I had a wonderful time growing up in Chesterfield with so many opportunities to play on stage, it is such a shame the festival no longer exists,” he said.

Now based in Colchester, Daniel composes, performs, mixes and masters, and designs all of his music releases.

He performs as a guest classical soloist for the world’s most prestigious cruise lines such as CUNARD, including the flagship QM2.

Danel said: “I have started to perform complete programmes of my own music for the first time, which is unbelievably exciting. Audiences are enjoying my original music, and that is the best feeling you can have as a composer. My music is for anyone. I hope my new album will inspire people to take a breath.”
