The
purpose of music is to inspire, to entertain,
to lift the soul.
Having
had a fascination with metal and woodwork from
a very young age, Peter Pollard has become one
of the most sought after instrument designers
and repairers in the UK. Peter has been working
with the country’s top musicians for over
40 years and has a thorough understanding of their
needs. Renowned for his experimental nature, he
pushes the boundaries of instrument design, using
materials not usually associated with the instruments
he is building.
Peter learnt his trade by studying acoustics,
metal and woodworking whilst working under the
watchful eyes of the worlds leading technicians.
Since then he has designed instruments for major
instrument manufacturers such as Jupiter and artists
in the UK and Canada. Peter also worked for retailers,
managing product ranges and developing their marketing
campaigns. Colleges have also taken advantage
of Peter’s expertise asking him to write
and examine repair courses in the UK and Norway.
Peter is a member of the NAPBIRT and the Yamaha
Technicians Guild and has regularly been seen
at all the worldwide major music shows including
NAMM, MIAC and the Frankfurt Musik Messe.
Finally Peter has returned to his true love, designing
and making brass and woodwind instruments and
is currently working on student instruments for
JHS and also custom instruments for individual
artists.
