   About Hebrew School

iLike Hebrew School

David Griffin began studying music at age 7, when he began ten years of classical piano instruction with renowned Russian pianist Ludmilla Lifson at the Longy School of Music in Cambridge, MA. His Bar Mitzvah present at age 13 was a classical guitar, which he continues to use in his work. David studied music at Sarah Lawrence College and the sarangi in Delhi, India. He went on to work at Mother Teresa’s clinic in Calcutta while playing with a group of Anglo-Indian jazz musicians. Since returning to America he has played as a dance accompanist in Berkeley and in a New York Klezmer band, The Murrays, which were featured on NPR and in the Village Voice. David now plays with the faux-French band Nous Non Plus and collaborates with several choreographers, including the critically acclaimed Christopher Williams. David is constantly writing and composing, focusing on Jewish music, 1960’s pop, indie rock and experimental music.

This project is supported by a grant from the Six Points Fellowship for Emerging Jewish Artists, a partnership of Avoda Arts, JDub Records, and the National Foundation for Jewish Culture, and made possible with major funding from UJA-Federation of New York.

After last night's lecture, someone commented to me that I must be an army brat because I had such fantastic teeth. Such teeth, he said, could only be the result of good breeding and access to the finest dental care. I explained that though I descend from a long line of Bulgarian nobility, when I was a boy people were still having infected teeth removed by a donkey tied to a rope. Happenstance, I explained to him, is the main reason behind Mustafio's distinguished countenance.
