DSC00850“David plays regularly with Desert Overture, the wind symphony I conduct. Even though the vast majority of concert band publications don’t include a
harp part, David is masterful at creating his own harp parts that complement the band scoring beautifully. He is very professional, always
prepared, and lends panache to every concert we play. I recommend him highly!”
Scott Helms – Desert Overture Live Entertainment

“Our May La Forza concert. I think it was one of our best 2 or 3 and maybe best ever concert. Night in Lisbon was flawless, thanks in part to David Ice on harp.”
Frank Darmiento – La Forza Chamber Orchestra

“David Ice has played with the Phoenix College Orchestra on many occasions. His playing is truly exceptional. He has a beautiful tone that separates him from other harpists.  His rhythm, his volume and his intuitive musicianship are truly outstanding. Whether he is playing the classics, pop or film scores, his contributions are always spectacular. I can give David my absolute highest recommendation.”
Dana Graybeal, Phoenix College Community Orchestra

“Thank you for your part in making our 50th Anniversary so memorable. The harp was a wonderful touch-so many have told us how much they enjoyed it. My nephew who came without his wife (she was ill) went home and told her how impressed he was-coming from him it is truly a compliment!”
