Hi, I’m David Palermo, the founder of St. Cloud School of Music! Music has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I’ve dedicated my career to sharing that joy with others. With 20 years of experience as a musician and educator, I’ve had the privilege of helping students of all ages discover their unique musical voices.
My greatest joy comes from creating an inclusive, supportive environment where students can thrive. Whether it’s their first note or their hundredth performance, I’m committed to guiding each student on their musical journey with patience, creativity, and encouragement.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll often find me with my Wife, 4 children, and our pet dog, Doodle. At St. Cloud School of Music, we believe music is for everyone, and I’m honored to be a part of each student’s story. Let’s make music together!
