David Hummel

​

David Hummel was not born in Texas, but got here as fast as he could! After finishing his undergraduate degrees in Music Performance and Education from Texas Tech University in 2009 he completed his Master’s degree in Bloomington, Indiana at Indiana University, studying tuba performance. He has since been teaching low brass privately in the Round Rock, Leander, Georgetown and Austin Independent School Districts. He also is the co-founder of the summer tuba and euphonium camp Teupha Camp. During his time at Texas Tech, he was the principal tubist with the Amarillo Symphony for two years as well as a substitute with the Big Spring Symphony Orchestra. He has competed in several regional and international competitions, most recently being in the semi-final round of the International Tuba and Euphonium Conference’s Tuba-Euphonium Quartet Competition and the final round of the Mock Band Audition. He has been lucky enough to study with such notable teachers as Dan Perantoni and Kevin Wass. David is the principal tuba for the Round Rock Symphony.
