David Goldenberg is a mandolin player who's singular approach blurs the lines between the adventurous sounds he hears in his head and the most rugged of fundamentals he is enamored of in traditional music.  He is a rare player who maintains a revolving affinity for bluegrass mandolin styles, fiddle tunes and a multitude of songwriters.  As one of the first ever mandolin graduates of the Berklee College of music, he went on to become a winner of the National Mandolin Contest, Telluride Bluegrass Band Contest, Rockygrass Mandolin Contest and Utah State Mandolin Contest.  Teaching has always been a central theme in Goldenberg's desire to connect with people.  He has maintained a roster of students from all levels for the past ten years.
