Hello and Welcome…
My mission is to create and facilitate an environment where you have the opportunity to grow and experience all that music offers, no matter where you are on that journey, and no matter how you engage with music.
Catalogue of Works
A large catalogue of compositions and arrangements is available representing over 100 of my published pieces. Works are available for voice, choir, organ, piano, flute, clarinet, oboe and chamber ensemble. Full details of each piece, and both sheet music and audio samples are available where possible.
Flute, Piano & Singing Lessons
Here in Lichfield, Staffordshire, I offer a range of simple and flexible options to help students learn, all of which centre around creativity and imagination. Lessons can provide a gateway to a whole range of musical experiences, hours of enjoyment, and a lifetime’s fulfilment.

Review: The Harry Potter Piano Anthology
Sometimes a book drops through the letterbox, and when I open the envelope, I just know that this is going to be a book which remains on my shelves forever. The Harry Potter Piano Anthology published by…
![So, this is 40, which I confess, feels no different to when I was 39 a little over 12 hours ago. Age is, of course, merely a number. That said, as I get older, we perhaps feel more acutely the passing of time.
One thing which has remained unchanged throughout history, is our unwavering appreciation for the miracle of life. As I reach the age of 40, I look back on the past four decades not only with that same appreciation, but with a huge dose of gratitude. I thought for a long time about what I might do to mark this milestone. I could never claim to be a party animal, but after what feels like 40 miraculous years of life, there’s something to be said for marking and sharing that gratitude with others.
To celebrate this milestone, I have written a piece of music, Be a Voice of Hope, which I have made freely available in support of The @separated_child Foundation.
You can find out more, download the music, and make a donation via the link in my stories, or here: https://www.davidbartonmusic.co.uk/be-a-voice-of-hope/
@separated_child offers emotional, social and practical support to lone refugee youth when they arrive in the UK. These children and young people have to flee their homelands because of war, terror or persecution. They do not have their parents with them because they were killed before they left or were unable to leave. The charity’s aim is to ensure that every separated child in the UK gets the support they need in order to be able to rebuild their lives and fulfil their potential.
We can all be a voice of hope for the future.
Thank you for your support!
