My friend and colleague David Sigall, who has died aged 78, after a long and debilitating illness, was a director of one of London’s leading concert agencies, Ingpen & Williams, from 1972 until his retirement in 2016.
Born in London, the son of Rudi Sigall, a furrier, and his wife, Betty, David was educated at the City of London school and his first intention was to become a solicitor. However his heart was never in it and he was irresistibly drawn to the world of music. He was lucky enough to be employed by Lina Lalandi of the English Bach festival, for whom he started to work in the late 1960s.
