Biography David Cameron, a Fellow of both the Royal Canadian College of Organists and Trinity College of London, moved to Kingston, Ontario, from his native Toronto in 1966. At that time he became Director of Music at Chalmers United Church, a position he still holds; at Chalmers he directs a semi-professional choir in services broadcast live each Sunday. In addition to Chalmers Choir, he has directed the Pro Arte Singers, which he founded in 1974 and left ten years later, and the choral ensemble Melos which maintains a regular concert series in Kingston, often with orchestra. His graduate study in Potsdam, NY, and St. Louis concentrated upon historical musicology for choral conductors, and composition.

In addition to his work with choirs, Mr. Cameron teaches organ at Queen’s University School of Music. He has taught several dozen organists, many of whom now work in churches and universities across Canada. As a choral conductor, he has performed many major works, including more than thirty performances of Handel’s Messiah, and has been responsible for a number of commissions and first performances. Active as a composer and editor of anthems, liturgical music and secular songs, his most recent publications are an extended CD of 175 Hymn Tunes Varied, a compendium of free accompaniments and descants issued in support of the R.C.C.O.’s national Endowment Fund, a CDR of Twenty-two Transcriptions for Organ—music originally for other instruments arranged for the organ, and anthems published by RCCO Publications, Harrock Hall Music, and Sarabande Music in addition to CPDL. In 2005-6 David Cameron is national First Vice-President of the RCCO, and chairs the committee supervising its National Endowment Fund.
