"A stand-out" - The Vancouver Sun

"It’s a very great skill to write interesting music that can still be played by aspirants,
and von Kampen has more than accomplished that … expertly crafted music."
- MusicSpoke.com

"His music has an easy musicality, even when he's stretching your ears a bit."
-Jon Washburn, Conductor Emeritus, Vancouver Chamber Choir

David von Kampen

COMPOSER

WELCOME!

Thanks for stopping by the site. I'm writing contemporary choral music and vocal jazz in Lincoln, Nebraska. For choir conductors, check out the featured choral music page or the complete list of my available choral scores, organized by category. Vocal jazz ensemble directors can head over to the vocal jazz page.

I'm a lecturer at the University of Nebraska Glenn Korff School of Music, where I direct the UNL Jazz Singers and teach music theory, ear training, and other courses. My choral music is available from Walton Music, Hal Leonard, Concordia Publishing House, Graphite, MusicSpoke, and other publishers. My vocal jazz arrangements are published at KerryMarsh.com.

Feel free to contact me with questions about scores, the commissioning process, clinician/adjudication work, or just to say hi.

You can visit the Biography page to learn more, and also find me on Twitter and Facebook.
