David Duncan

David Duncan began playing the piano at the age of six. These early beginnings prepared him for the diverse and busy musical life that he enjoys today as a pianist, organist, conductor and choral arranger. His experience and extensive musical background have made him one of the most sought-after musicians in the Indianapolis area. 

Duncan received both his Bachelor and Master of Music Degrees in Piano Performance from the Indiana University School of Music, studying under gifted teachers who nurtured and supported his love and interest in a wide range of musical styles and genres.  He has served on the faculties of both Taylor University and Anderson University, where he conducted and arranged for both men’s and women’s choral ensembles and taught classes in classical and jazz piano, improvisation and choral arranging. 

As a pianist, Duncan has worked with many of the finest musical organizations in the area, including The Great American Songbook High School Vocal Competition with Michael Feinstein and Encore Vocal Arts Ensemble. He has also done extensive work as a pianist/conductor for many local theater companies, including the Indiana Repertory Theatre, Actors Theatre of Indiana, Civic Theatre, Beef and Boards Dinner Theatre and The Boze Lyric Theatre at Anderson University, where he was Music Director/Conductor for twelve productions, including Into the Woods, The Music Man, Children of Eden, and Seussical. He continues to work regularly with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra and the Indianapolis Children’s Choir.  

Duncan is passionate about working with high school students to further their love and appreciation of music and the arts. He is a staff accompanist/choral arranger at Franklin Central High School, a program that has consistently been the first place winners of the Indiana State School Music Association competitions in both Concert Choir and Show Choir categories. He is also the Organist at Resurrection Lutheran Church in Greenwood.
