Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on May 24, 1981)

Happy Birthday, David Fray! May your fingers dance across the keys with as much flair and passion as when BBC Music Magazine crowned you Newcomer of the Year back in 2008. Clearly, you've aged like a fine concerto—timelessly elegant yet always surprising us with fresh brilliance.

From captivating audiences worldwide to breathing new life into Bach's masterpieces, your performances continue to strike chords (literally!) that resonate deeply. Here's hoping this year brings even more standing ovations—and perhaps fewer tricky page turns!

Cheers to another harmonious trip around the sun; may it be filled with laughter and endless encores!
