“An awesome jazz musician, composing dazzling melodies with extraordinary harmonies, and playing with exceptional swing, demonstrating a brilliant virtuoso technique. His world-class playing has the reach and breadth of continual inventiveness and sensitivity.” Jazz Direct
​
An assured and versatile pianist, David Gordon is one of the few professional jazz musicians who is also a well-established classical artist. An accomplished harpsichordist as well as pianist, David includes work as soloist/director with the likes of the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, the London Chamber Orchestra and Concerto Köln and as an award-winning composer he has had works commissioned by festivals, orchestras and fellow musicians alike.
​
As a jazz pianist he has a repertoire that focuses on original compositions, but also includes material as diverse as folk music from Venezuela, East European dance tunes and Celtic-tinged melodies.

David is a world class talent with a playful sense of humour, which makes all his shows both musically innovative and a lot of fun.

“Gordon...a richly gifted player with a sparkling style and boundless imagination!” Independent on Sunday
​
"He doesn’t play many notes, but the notes that he does play are almost the selection of a genius" Jazz FM
