Hi, I’m Dan, I’m a cellist and I play with Avenue Ensemble. As a cellist I get the best of both worlds, because the cello often has the bass line that is the foundation of the music, but we also get to play a good tune once in a while! I’m really passionate about making all sorts of music available to people who might not normally experience it, because whilst it might seem like a different language at first, there’s so much to be shared if you get underneath the surface.
I have a mixed taste in music, my favourite classical composer is Mendelssohn, I love electro swing, the Arcade Fire, Daft Punk, Radiohead, Stevie Wonder and anything with a good driving bass line!
I’m a big foodie, a cyclist and one of the chief tasters of Tom’s home-brew.
