Hi, I'm David. I graduated high school in 2007 and served as an intern to my music teacher and mentor this past year. I am a highly accomplished musician, and no I'm not cocky, I'm voraciously confident. I can play anything but my main instruments are percussion and piano. This coming fall, I'll be attending the University of South Carolina for a concentration in piano and percussion performance and also music composition.
Music is my life, and that's not superficial either. It's pretty much the only thing I'm good at (lololololol...that and computer programming), and through it I can express a developed artistic medium.
I love classical music. A lot. No seriously, I love it...A LOT. I love any style of classical music (be it Baroque, Classical, Romantic, 20th Century, Minimalist, Avant-garde, or whatever), and I know a hell of a lot about it. Oh yes, I enjoy Dream Theater, Symphony X, and Necrophagist too. Yeah, as far as other styles, I'm pretty open minded, but my favorites are progressive anything, jazz, acoustic, fusion, funk, and techno (in no particular order.)
So that kinda sums it up, I guess. If you want to know more, just ask.
