A course by David Snyder
David Snyder, a pianist, composer, and performer, is known for his dynamic artistry and innovative approach to music. Growing up in Grand Forks, ND, David's passion for the piano was evident from a young age. He honed his skills under the guidance of two classical teachers, developing a strong foundation in classical music which later became the backbone of his diverse musical influences. His early exposure to teaching allowed him to share his love for the instrument, starting with lessons for children when he was only 14. Despite stepping away from classical piano due to creative disagreements, David rekindled his love for the piano through composition and improvisation, eventually sharing his work on social media.
David's career took a remarkable turn as he gained recognition for his compositions, leading to performances with renowned artists such as Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube. His versatility as a musician is evident in his ability to seamlessly integrate classical, jazz, rock, and cinematic elements into his work. David's journey has been highlighted by his participation in America's Got Talent and a nationwide tour that showcased his unique blend of comedy, improvisation, and musical storytelling. Now based in Los Angeles, he continues to create, perform, and inspire aspiring musicians through his engaging online content and courses.
