History Leads to Present
Growing up, David was more excited about being a guitarist than a violinist. But with some twists of fate, David now finds himself polishing precision on the same etudes that once stood between him and Saturday morning cartoons.
David practices for hours almost every day, sometimes with nothing more than an instrument, a phone, and a metronome.
Present Leads to Future
Kansas' progressive rock puts David's classical background into a rock foreground.
Consummate Performer
For David, breathing means breathing life into music.
