“Nobody Does It Better”: Love Songs of Our Generation.
"Wilson uses the uniquely grainy sound of his violin to create a series of insinuating, bittersweet, and anti-sentimental moods that magically find the emotional center of each tune. It’s reminiscent of a style from a different era, one that we may have too casually dismissed, when cool really meant laid back and low-key....Hearing this CD is a reminder that the masters of that era were superb musicians in just the way Old Blue Eyes was, when singing encores in a smoke-filled lounge late at night, knowing that his audience was falling in love.
...The audiophile-quality sound expertly mixes the instruments without losing Wilson’s expressive sound among the shimmering cymbals or the velvet bass. ...The last of the ten tracks on the disc says it all: “Nobody Does It Better”. "

David Wilson started his music career as a pianist. He later combined his classical training with the light stylish touch of jazz piano, and adapted it to the violin.
When Henry Mancini heard him play, he asked David to record violin with him on two albums.
Soon later, he signed with Swallowtail Records in Minneapolis.
He has released 9 albums of retro ballads - his "Cafe Music Series -
All available on amazon.com, Borders, B&N, etc. Album sales now exceed 150,000 units.
In Beverly Hills, Malibu, and Hollywood he has played for Sinatra, Bowie, Tony Bennett, Gene Kelly, Dylan, Herb Alpert, as well as for many celebrity actors and entertainers.
More recently, with producer Benedikt Brydern they have released an album of Latin music titled "Elegancia" on the Consordino Music label.
- Recently released is "NOBODY DOES IT BETTER" - comprised of great ballads by Al Green, Carly Simon, Bee Gees, George Harrison, Roberta Flack, Bread, Lionel Richie, and other legends of the past. These wonderful songs provide a perfect template for the expressive beauty of David's violin.
