@rhb has got it!
Take out any branches that are damaged first.
Then any that are crossing over each other.
Then have a good look round the tree and try and create some air flow in the middle. Make sure your clippers are clean and clean them again between trees.

The first Pear needs the high shoots bringing down and let the centre have some space back in them all. i.m.o.
Cherry can be pruned now iirc, Pear & Apple tends to be done in winter.
