Biography

Viennese violinist Wolfgang David (born Wolfgang Sengstschmid in St. Pölten, Austria), established himself on the international stage as recitalist and soloist with some of today's leading orchestras, including the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, Tonkünstler Orchestra, Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Berne Symphony Orchestra, and New York Virtuosi.

He has been well received by the press — the Washington Post wrote that he "scaled the heights of musicmaking” and the March 2001 edition of the British music magazine The Strad described his playing “as emotionally wide-ranging as one could hope for.”
