I met David a number of times having studied Jazz Theory with him and he was an amazing person. Very erudite and a master at explaining things in a simple and informative way. I was told had to stop playing trombone after a car crash where he broke his jaw and was refused treatment at an american hospital. He will be missed by many for sure.
