Praised by Time Out Chicago for their "chops, polish, and youthful joy in performing," Third Coast Percussion effortlessly combines the energy of a rock concert with the finesse of classical chamber music. This Chicago-based group has swiftly gained national attention with their performances at the Kennedy Center and the Chicago Cultural Center, as well as their concert and festival appearances in Florida, California, Texas, and throughout the Chicago-land area. With repertoire and influences ranging from contemporary masters Steve Reich and Luciano Berio to electronica gurus Autechre and Aphex Twin, Third Coast Percussion is as dynamic and diverse as the musical landscape of the 21st century.

David is a member of this revolutionary new ensemble of 12 percussionists from around the world. The group was in residence at the Lucerne Festival from 2005-2008 under the name Lucerne Festival Percussion Group. The ensemble has commissioned and premiered works from Dai Fujikura, Philippe Schoeller, Liza Lim, Fritz Hauser, Yann Robin, Johannes Fischer, and Gary Berger. All of these works were composed for twelve performers on an assembly of pitched percussion instruments that remain constant from piece to piece. The group's work with international soloist Fritz Hauser on his piece Bricco Lu lead to experimental performances of structured improvisation in a variety of settings. The group has performed at the Lucerne Festival, Austria's Klangspuren Festival, and on Germany's Essen Philharmonie Series.
