Biography: Wolfgang David and David Gompper met in 2000\, when Wolfgang was on a concert tour of the US. They began to w ork together as a performer and composer\, which resulted in eleven work s composed by David Gompper especially written for Wolfgang David\, incl uding a Violin Concerto that Wolfgang recorded with the Royal Philharmon ic Orchestra for the NAXOS label. In 2002 both musicians were invited to perform together as a violin & piano duo in Moscow. Encouraged by this success\, they have since presented over 100 concerts\, touring througho ut the United States and a number of countries in Europe. While their re pertoire includes traditional works for this instrumentation\, the main focus is a combination of late romantic\, standard 20th century and cont emporary compositions written especially for them. Four CDs of the duo a re available: two on Albany label\, and one each on Naxos and VDE-Gallo. In the space of a few short years\, Wolfgang David has ensconced himsel f on the international stage\, both as a recitalist\, and as a guest sol oist with many leading orchestras such as the Royal Philharmonic Orchest ra\, Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra\, Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchest ra\, Berne Symphony Orchestra\, New York Virtuosi etc. He tours regularl y throughout Europe\, North and South America\, as well as Japan.
