Daniel Casimir attended the Birmingham Conservatoire Jazz Course between 2008-2012 and began studying the double bass under the tuition of Mark Hodgson and Arnie Somogyi. During his time at Birmingham Conservatoire, Daniel was also taught by legendary bassist Dave Holland and received several performance opportunities, such as to perform in the Trondheim jazz festival and participating in a project with Saxophonist Chris Potter. Jon Turney describes Daniel's performance: "Outstanding for me, though, was Dan Casimir on bass. He did everything a bass player should, cruising with the orchestra, responding creatively to the soloists, duetting impressively with Potter on one number.” Daniel left Birmingham in 2012 with a first for his final performance. Daniel is the winner of The Musicians’ Company’s Young Jazz Musician Award 2016. In 2017 Daniel released his first recording as a Bandleader, Escapee. Escapee was released under the Jazz Re:freshed. Daniel is preparing new material for his album with vocalist Tess Hirst https://www.danielcasimirbass.com/about (2020) International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHAKirkbride 1/9/2020 Rachael.Fragola 3/1/2022 9e7f54ec-cb8a-4161-917e-ec9aef293a04
