David SeeSince returning to New York City in 2014 ostensibly to retire, David See has enjoyed a varied and often pounding work schedule as collaborative pianist, choral singer, teacher and composer. A member of New York Composers Circle, his compositions include The Argument Rag for viola and piano performed in 2017; a piano concerto premiered by Symphony of the Mountains (Kingsport TN) with soloist Gary Hammond of Hunter College; a Theme and Variations for cello and piano which will have its New York premiere in March; many soundtracks for the “Don’t Touch That Dial!” Radio Theater productions on WETS-FM Public Radio during its run in the 1990s; and a series of two piano pieces typically performed by the composer with his wife Lynn Rice-See.
He is currently a staff pianist for Mannes School of Music at the New School and for Broadway Dance Center, and has been collaborative pianist for Apotheosis Opera, Tapestry Choir and Highbridge Voices Youth Choir. Prior to the move, he was staff pianist at Middle Tennessee State University performing in instrumental and vocal recitals as well as musical theater productions, and was principal keyboardist and choral pianist with Symphony of the Mountains (Kingsport TN). A recording of Seven Franchetti Songs composed by Michael Linton, with David on piano, is available for free at refinersfire.us (CD release pending). David holds a B.M. degree in Music Composition from Oberlin Conservatory, where his teachers included Randolph Coleman, Richard Hoffman and Dary John Mizelle. His experience as choral singer before C4 included the Oberlin College Choir, the St. Bartholomew Church choir, and the Collegium Musicum at East Tennessee State University. He is honored to have been accepted into C4 after a long time away from singing, and to have two recent choral compositions premiered by C4 in 2017 (Be On Time and Two Poems of Robert Herrick). |
