Violist David Auerbach will graduate this fall with a performance Doctorate from Stony Brook University, where he has been a scholarship student of Katherine Murdock for the past three years. Previously, he earned a Masters Degree at the Juilliard School under the tutelage of Samuel Rhodes, and a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, with majors in both Music Performance and Molecular Biology.
As a soloist, Mr. Auerbach has given numerous recitals in both New England and the Midwest. His vital involvement in chamber music includes participation in the music festivals of Ravinia, Kneisel Hall, and Norfolk, and he has performed several times in Carnegie's Weill and Zankel Recital Halls. In addition to maintaining an active performing career, Mr. Auerbach teaches in a wide variety of contexts, including giving individual instruction to pre-college students at Juilliard, teaching beginning string players in elementary schools in Vermont, and coaching chamber music at Dartmouth College.
