Violinist Composer Teacher Photographer
I regularly compose for my different bands, within collaborative works and for my solo repertoire, as well as on commission.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to book a solo concert, to commission a new piece or to use one of my existing compositions.
Here are some of my latest projects:
Oneliners
During the pandemic, I wrote one line of music every day, each line being a complete original composition. Not limited to violin solo, they can be interpreted on any instrument, and may be composed on commission. Great to practice, they may also serve as original pedagogical challenges to improve instrumental skills and techniques.
Contact me for more details, music sheets or to commission a new one.
Here you can hear recorded ones:
Here is one played by Hélène Boulègue on flute:
David's Oneliners for Solo Violin
Since the pandemic, I have been performing a number of Oneliners, and their extended versions, as a core part of my solo repertoire. You may also recognise in-passing references in my longer compositions.
In June 2024, a selection of Oneliners was featured as a multi-sensorial experiment alongside contemporary canvas paintings within "The Augmented Reality Experience" at the Arts Academy of Hamme. Despite the live exhibition having concluded, you may still experience the artistic juxtaposition here.
I particularly enjoy collaborative and interdiscplinary art-making, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to feature Oneliners within your artistic projects.
Strings Attached
1 violinist, 11 dancers...
In 2024, I collaborated with the incredibly talented dancers from Compagnie J who brought my composition "Strings Attached" to life on the stages of the Patchwork Festival in Damme, Oostende and Ghent.
Our last performance took place at the festival "Dansen in't Park" in August 2024 in Sint-Amandsberg, but if you missed it, you can still hear this original piece on Spotify and other streaming platforms.
Digital Compositions
I work with virtual instruments and compose stock music. Unapologetically bold and dramatic in style, my compositions are more cinematic than your average youtube background music track. Most of these pieces feature an improvised violin part recorded acoustically.
Send me a message to use my work or commission a new piece.
Other Compositions
I compose both classical and non-classical pieces for diverse ensembles within specific projects or on commission.
