David F. Wanner
Behind The Music
My name is David Wanner, a freelance composer and an artist with an adventurous spirit. I love stories and wish to tell stories with my music. I am at heart a Romantic and enjoy flowing melodies and swelling harmonies in the music that encompasses my leisure and my career. I enjoy mastering new works and making modern arrangements of songs. I’ve loved music my whole life. It began as a fun pass time, grew into a passion, and has now shaped and become the center of my career.
​
I earned my Master of Music in Classical Composition from the Lamont School of Music at the University of Denver and my Bachelor of Arts in Music from the University of Portland. My works have premiered with the UP Wind Symphony, the Lamont Symphony Orchestra, CORVUS, Denver's Nouveau Trois Guitar Trio, UP Chapel Music Ensemble, and Call Our Bluff.
​
​Music is the great bridge between myself and the world with which I engage, and I hope to further that bridge by connecting people through my works. While I pursue my passion composing, I regularly direct music for my local parish as well as enjoy the nature and vibrant culture of New England with my wife and son. Music is meant to be shared, so please listen to and share my works and enjoy the music.
