"David Herring is a wonderful composer and arranger. He has spent countless
hours listening to our needs and doing everything he can to make our group
sound wonderful. His skills and dedication to music education and the
creation of wonderful new music is compelling. I look forward to
continuing doing business with him."

Ron Chapman, Aubrey H.S. Band

"I have been playing Mr. Herring's compositions for a couple of years
now, and they have been a bit hit with the kids!  Put that together with
the reinforcement of key musical concepts these pieces facilitate, and
you have a great value for your budget dollar.  I can't recommend highly
enough that you give his catalog a look!"

Mitch Boeckman - Alba Golden H.S. Band

"A stunning, creative soul served on a platter of limitless energy with a dash of sarcasm.  What's not to like!  I have known Dave for 14 years I can honestly say that I have never met a more uniquely talented musician.  During our time at the University of Illinois he was more than a fabulous trombonists.  He was a great resource of musical knowledge and truly helped me become a better trombone player.  I hope you all buy everything he prints.  You will not regret the journey."

Barry C. Hearn - Assistant Principal Trombone, National Symphony Orchestra

"David Herring’s arrangements are first class!  His talent and creativity for writing has helped bring our show designs to reality.  David was always dedicated to delivering the exact product we wanted….no matter how many times we changed our minds!  We are definitely using him again!"

Clayton Harris - Redwater H.S. Band

"I am a huge fan of David Herring's music.  David is both an exceptional composer and an exceptional trombonist, and this dual talent has resulted in some incredibly exciting new repertoire. I highly recommend David's compositions, and I urge you to commission new pieces from him.  I had the pleasure of commissioning a piece recently, and I could not be more pleased.  David has an incredible sense for making the trombone sing, and his ideas are truly original.  Add David's music to your library today.  You won't be disappointed."

Paul Compton -  Assistant Professor of Trombone, Oklahoma State University

"I've had the pleasure of preparing and premiering three solo works by David Herring. In each case, I found the music to be both technically and musically engaging.  David is without a doubt one of the most creative composers writing for the trombone today.  More people need to know about his music, and in a big way!"

Tony Baker - Professor of Trombone, University of North Texas

"My bands have enjoyed the music written and arranged by David.  David has a gift for knowing what rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic tools to use, and he knows how to write music that is playable by students at all playing levels.  He incorporated the elements we wanted in our marching show and he added much more through his creativity."

Chris Burk - Director of Bands Anna, Texas

"I have known David Herring for over two decades now and he has yet to disappoint. The two pieces he wrote for me for me are truly top notch.... technically challenging and musically enjoyable... a must for the modern Bass Trombonist. Thanks, Dave"

Michael D. McLemore - Artist/Designer/Technician Greenhoe Custom Trombones

“I can't say enough about David Herring as a composer.  He anticpated many of our needs and was exceptionally professional as he composed a marching show specifically tailored to our band program.  David was a huge part of the success our marching program has enjoyed.  Whether you are looking for something unique or revisting on old standard, David Herring will make you wonder why you ever looked anywhere else."
