David Yoon
David Yoon joined the Kansas City Symphony in the 2019-2020 season as Associate Principal Percussion. Originally from Irvine, CA, he began his musical journey with a few years of training in piano and violin. At age 10 he began taking drum lessons, and from then on, there was no looking back.
David received his bachelor’s degree from the Juilliard School and was a recipient of the Kovner Fellowship. Before joining the Kansas City Symphony, he spent a year in the master’s degree program at the Manhattan School of Music. His wonderful teachers along the way were Christopher Lamb, Daniel Druckman, Duncan Patton, Jack Van Geem, Kyle Zerna, Markus Rhoten, and She-e Wu.
David has performed with various orchestras including the Atlanta Symphony, Cleveland Orchestra, Dallas Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the New York Philharmonic. In 2023 he served as Guest Principal Percussion at the Colorado Music Festival. He has served as adjunct instructor of percussion at the University of Missouri – Kansas City since 2024. He is an endorser of Vic Firth and Zildjian Cymbals.
