I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
David Burgos was born in Caracas, Venezuela in the late 1970's. At the age of 2 he traveled to New Orleans, La where he was first interested in music by watching his father perform at live venues. After a few years David moved to Miami, FL. where he attended Nautilus Middle School. There he began studying Trumpet under the direction of Raymundo Modia. David, only 13, immediately excelled and propelled himself to the top of his class. He decided to continue his musical ambitions when he attended Miami Beach Senior High and joined every musical group available. David excelled in music all throughout the County and State wining numerous superior awards for solos and ensemble for both regional and state levels, chorus, marching band, wind ensemble, rock ensemble, jazz band, all-county principal chairs as well as all-state awards. David continued his studies at Miami-Dade Community College where he attended numerous European jazz festivals such as: The North Sea Jazz Festival, Montreux Jazz Festival, Umbria Jazz Festival, and Lucca Jazz Festival. David attended Florida Atlantic University and currently works all over South Florida with his numerous musical projects. Educating has always been a major focus for David's music and he has taught at Miami Beach Senior High as well as Miami Dade College. David was recently invited to play at the Kathmandu Jazz Festival in Nepal (Oct 2006). He was invited as one of the top international artist representing both the United States and Venezuela.
