About the Artist

Classical guitarist and composer DAVID TEMPLE has
performed throughout the country as a soloist, accompanist
and ensemble player.  He is dedicated to presenting guitar
performances that are full of color and variety, and to making
a the concert experience as enjoyable for the new-comer as for 
the experienced listener.

Concerts have included the Festival of Arts at Mohonk, the
Classical Music series in Ocala, Florida, the Philadelphia
Chamber Music Society and the Tower Music series in
Poughkeepsie.  He has given recitals at the University of the
Arts and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

A graduate of the music school at Eastern Michigan University, 
David also studied at the San Francisco Conservatory, and 
participated in master classes through the Philadelphia Classical
Guitar Society. 

He has  produced three recordings, which include an eclectic
selection from the repertoire, as well as original arrangements 
and compositions.  Of his second recording, “Night Dances: 
Music of Spain and Latin America,” Noah Fleisher of the 
Taconic Weekend states: 

 
“David is one of those rare musicians of any genre that 
is able to play directly what is coming from his head, 
without barrier between mind, finger and fretboard.”
