Performance Recordings
These recordings are mostly taken live from David's concerts rather than being edited recordings.
The links, as of 1 February 2016, are to uncompressed .wav files and lossless compressed .flac files in CD quality and MP3 at 192 kb/s. I will add audio player links shortly.
Organ

From William Byrd's My Ladye Nevells Booke (1591) this performance of Ut re mi fa sol la was recorded on the Knud Smenge organ in Newman Chapel, the University of Melbourne where David is the organist. This was recorded at the end of a lengthy recording session accompanying the Newman College Choir and with just two takes as the recording session had already gone overtime for the choir's work.
