David Tolk

Born and raised in the small wooded town of Mendham, New Jersey, David Tolk studied classical piano from an early age with his mother, Marilyn Tolk, who is a graduate of The Juilliard School.   During his teenage years,  David became more interested in learning to play the music of Rush, Genesis, and Yes.  He discovered that he could play most songs on the radio by ear.  David also began composing peaceful instrumental music while still in high school. After his freshman year at Mendham High School, David's family moved to Brentwood, Tennessee, where his father became a professor of physics at Vanderbilt University.  While in Tennessee, David's love for music and composition continued to grow and flourish.  In addition to his musical career, David obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature and a Juris Doctor degree. David has released fifteen peaceful instrumental albums which have received international distribution and radio airplay. David's 2010 instrumental piano CD release, "David Tolk Christmas," peaked at #8 on the Billboard New Age Chart for the week of December 25, 2010.  David's music has received more than 800 million streams worldwide.   David's four most recently released albums, Blessings, Heaven's Light, Wonder, and Beautiful (which was released in October of 2025), each peaked as the #1 best-selling new-age album on Amazon shortly after their releases. www.davidtolk.com
