Later on, David earned his Master of Arts in Jazz Performance and Composition from the Aaron Copland School of Music/City University of New York, where he studied with the best in the NY jazz scene. He has worked professionally as percussionist and vocalist within diverse genres and situations: TV talk show band (UNIVISION PR), theater plays, dance workshops, DJ/percussion, pop-rock, and many more. Throughout his career he has shared the bandstand with distinguished Latin and Jazz musicians: La India, Ricardo Pons, Tito Puente, Roberto Roena, the late Juancito Torres, and Bobby Valent&237;n. David was a founding member of the Jahovians band who were part of the Reggae Antholgy CD, 'Vibraciones Positivas'. The Jahovians were featured as the opening band for internationally acclaimed, reggae artists, Ziggy Marley and Steel Pulse. David collaborated in the theater production of "Love is in the Air" as ensemble member and Musical Director at the New York Fringe Theater Festival. David composed and performed original music for the Sundance Lab Project feature film "Tiny Dancer", conceived by director Eva Husson, produced by UNISON Films and Berlin Film Festival. Recently, he recorded all Latin Percussions for the documentary film "Antonia Pantoja, Presente!" with film composer Richard Martinez from Light Body Music. This documentary was presented with great acclaim at the NY HBO International Film Festival in July 2009. In March 2009 David was chosen to represent the USA at the United Nations-NYC, joining dozens of musicians from other countries. David currently lives in New York City and continues to work as musician and educator. He keeps looking forward to meeting professional artists for future collaborations and learning experiences.
