My name is David Strassberg. I am a violinist living in Charlotte, NC. I have been playing professionally for over 23 years. I currently am a substitute musician for the Charlotte Symphony. I also perform with Greenville Symphony (SC), Concertmaster of the Union Symphony (Monroe, NC) and served as Principal 2nd Violin of the Rock Hill Symphony (SC) this past season.

Have also played in many productions over the years with Opera Carolina, including 3 concerts with Andrea Bocelli, Queens University, CPCC, and UNCC.
An avid freelancer throughout the Carolinas and the Southeast, other orchestras have included Augusta Symphony, South Carolina Philharmonic, Western Piedmont Symphony, and the Charleston Symphony coming up this summer.

I have also recorded with local singer-songwriters, and have delved into Improvisation the past 10 yrs.
I was born in Mankato, MN and graduated from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities in 2000, with a Bachelor’s of Music Performance, where I studied with Mark Bjork. I moved to Charlotte in August of ‘01. Other teachers include Xiaoqing Yu, Monica Boboc, and Calin Lupanu, Concertmaster of Charlotte Symphony.

I have taught violin and viola since 2000. Currently I have a private studio in Charlotte and also teach at Music and Arts Center. It’s an honor to work with so many talented and wonderful students and their families.
