| Bio: | My name is David Carmichael, though few people call me that anymore. I suppose I began being called "Big Dave" my junior year of high school by a few close friends, and now, few people know as anything but Big Dave. I am 23 years old, a music education student at Murray State University (in Kentucky).
I stand 6'6" on most days, have brown hair, hazel eyes, and clean teeth. I do my best to shower every morning, and try to look somewhat respectable. I weigh somewhere around 240 lbs, I guess, but I'm not a heavy, large man. Just... well... big, as the nickname suggests. My stature is often fairly intimidating, or so I've been told. = )
I'm a member of the North Marshall Church of Christ, and attempt to be a devout Christian as God would have me be in all things I do. I enjoy horseback riding, hiking, most sports, white water rafting, and reading (John Grisham is one of my favorites).
I have, and always will be involved in music. I really love it. I have played the euphonium since 6th grade and really love doing so. I also play the trombone, tuba, and trumpet.
I've received a few honors in band. I attended Governor's School for the Arts in the summer of 1997 (an experience that was beyond words), received the John Phillip Sousa award my senior year, and made 1st chair euphonium in the Kentucky All-State Symphonic Band. I will always feel privileged to have been able to sit among some of the greatest high school musicians in the state. It was truly an honor. For the past five semisters at Murray State, I've sit first chair in the wind ensemble - yet an even bigger honor. I have been a member of the All-Collegiate Band for the last three years. I was the Racer Band Euphonium Section Leader in 2000, and had a solo in the closure. I was awarded "Racer Band Member of the Year" at the awards banquet in 2000, and received the award for "Best Brass" this past year. I was also elected Racer Band President for this last year, a true learning experience.
I've worked the last three summers with the directors at Lone Oak High School to assist them in helping the low brass. It's been both humbling and exciting, and I'm honored to be there. They are an amazing bunch of guys. A special hey out to all of you low brass guys. Miss you guys.
In the spring of 2000, the wind ensemble here at Murray traveled to England on a tour through London, Oxford, and Manchester. We played at the BWASBE International convention in the Royal British College of Music. It was awesome, and I can't wait to go back. If you are ever able to go, do so.
On November 25, 2002, I was initiated into the Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia music fraternity. It's a group of men striving to make music, to strive to encourage others to, and to spread our love for music to others (among other things). It's a great organization, and I'm proud to be a part of it here at the Gamma Delta chapter in Murray. We do a lot of great things to help music reach the community in ways I would've never thought possible. Great group of guys in it, too. Some of my very closest friends.
Yeah... that's me in a nutshell, I guess. |
