David Feldman

In April 2018, Feldman's participation in Duduka Da Fonseca's "Plays Dom Salvador", which received a 4-star rating from DownBeat's June 2018 edition, does an "admirable job of fleshing out the harmony in Salvador’s writing without underplaying the rhythmic content, and his phrasing on “Mariá” and “Para Elis” leaves one wondering why those ballads aren’t better known", according to J.D. Cosidine.

In September 2016 Feldman released the Horizonte album, with seven original songs. Per Mauro Ferreira "Horizonte confirms the carioca pianist as one of the great talents of today's brasilian instrumental music". According to Dan Bilawsky, who gave Horizonte 4.5 starts out of 5 in his review on All About Jazz "While Feldman's decision to remain in Rio de Janeiro has kept him slightly off the radar, this album is a brilliant blip that should register with Brazilian jazz lovers near and far. Feldman's composing chops take center stage, his piano playing—alternately ruminative and animated—delights, and his crafting of a strong group dynamic speaks volumes about his leadership"

Feldman's solo disc "piano" from 2014 was also received well by the critics.

Feldman released in 2009 his first album "O Som do Beco Das Garrafas", very well received by the critics. Since then he has performed in jazz festivals in Brasil and overseas, having performed more than four times at the Festival Internacional de Jazz de Punta del Este, where in 2014 he had clarinetist/saxophonist Paquito D’Rivera as special guest.

In 2004, he was semi-finalist of the Solo Piano Competition at Montreux Jazz Festival. In Brasil, he plays with Leny Andrade, Leila Pinheiro, and also has plaid in duos with veterans Paulo Moura and Leo Gandelman. Feldman collaborates with the Brazilian NY based drummer Duduka Da Fonseca, is the pianist in Duduka's trio with excellent critic reviews, and incorporates Duduka as the drummer of the David Feldman Trio in New York.

In 2000, Feldman enrolled at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York, graduating in 2002. He worked with Slide Hampton and Claudio Roditi, was invited to sit in at the Mingus Big Band and worked with Duduka Da Fonseca, Matt Garrison and Eli Degibri.
