Michael Davies
John's brother Michael is our Percussion
and Brass specialist.
He is also an Arranger, Engraver, Web Designer and
Tutor for his favourite music programme Dorico.
After many years working in the printing industry, Michael has prepared all the sheet music and digital audio for this website, as well as designing and building it.
His passion is making music easier to read and therefore easier to learn and play.
One of Michael's favourite jobs is to take old battered and worn music and re engrave it, particularly march cards. (He likes it so much he tends to do it for a very reasonable price)
Here are some pieces, some arranged by, and some written and arranged by Michael.

Claygate Scout and Guide Band
in October 2025
playing "Bill and John".
Click on a score to see a sample of the first page of the score and a sample of the first page of a part. The samples are fairly low res PNG
files so they load fairly quickly over the internet, all of the originals are vector PDF files and will print at the maximum resolution of a
printer.
Just in case you were wondering what Michael does when he's not writing music or websites. Here are some pics of DIY projects.
The soft fruit cage.
Before making the cage the birds and Squirrels got all the
fruit. Boo!
We call this "The Bridge Too Far"
Elderly parents and small children find the gap to the grass
difficult to negotiate.
Our Luxury Bird Feeding Station. Even in the metropolis of
capital city we have had at least a dozen different species of birds.
Semi permanent repair to a very old out building. Most of the
structure is good so it seemed appropriate to make it safe for a few more years.
