David Katahira is a Fourth Year undergraduate student from Burke, Virginia.  He has studied the violin with Professor Daniel Sender throughout his time at the University.  He has participated in the McIntire Department of Music's chamber ensemble since his second year, performing in string quartets and piano quintets as the first violinist.  As a First Year student, David was a violinist for the former Charlottesville University Symphony Orchestra, now called the Charlottesville Symphony.  David has performed in several weddings in the Charlottesville area and the Homecomings Rotunda Reopening celebration in October 2016 with his string quartet.  Following graduation, David plans to work for two years before attending law school.
