Conducting careeredit
Daniels was Music Director of the Warren Symphony Orchestra (Michigan) from its inception in 1974 until his retirement in 2010.[4] He was Professor Emeritus at Oakland University, where he taught for 28 years, six of them as chair of the Department of Music, Theatre and Dance. He retired from Oakland University in 1997, and to honor him the orchestra named the annual young artists concert the "David Daniels Young Artists Concert."[5]
Daniels also conducted opera in Boston for a dozen years, where his performances were five times named “Best Opera of the Year” by the Boston Globe.[citation needed] Other guest conducting includes the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, the Detroit Symphony Civic Orchestra, Michigan Opera Theatre, Ann Arbor Ballet Theatre, Detroit Chamber Winds & Strings, Meadow Brook Festival Orchestra, and the Orquesta Sinfonia de Maracaibo, Venezuela.
David Daniels is the author of Daniels' Orchestral Music (1st-5th ed. 1972-2015, Rowman & Littlefield), a reference book for orchestra professionals.[6][7] A second book, with coauthor John Yaffé, is Arias, Ensembles, & Choruses: An Excerpt-Finder for Orchestras (2012).[8] Daniels also was a series editor for Rowman & Littlefield (2009-2015).
In 2016, he was given a Lifetime Achievement Award by the College Orchestra Directors Association (CODA).[9]
