David "Lenny" Stallworth is an assistant professor at the Berklee College of Music, and teaches in both the Bass and Ensembles department. He is currently touring with jazz trumpeter Roy Hargrove and his band, The RH Factor, in addition to jazz saxophonist Kenny Garrett and his quartet. Stallworth also has toured throughout America and Europe as the bassist for the legendary saxophonist Maceo Parker and his funk and soul band (Parker was James Brown sax player). Stallworth has appeared in the Broadway musicals Five Guys Named Moe and Another Saturday Night. He has recorded with many artists in a wide variety of genres since his teenage days touring the Chitlin circuit with his first funk and soul band, The Super Soul Movement, in the 1970s. Today, his greatest inspiration comes from teaching. He has a special ability to motivate and inspire his students while guiding them through their learning process and musical journey.
Anthony Vitti balances a successful performing career with a professorship in the Bass Department at Berklee College of Music, where he has taught since 1988. He got his start in the rock club scene in New York City in the early 80s, sharing the stage with classic rock bands like Twisted Sister, TT Quick, and the Good Rats. He went on to study at Berklee College of Music, graduating in 1986.
That set the stage for a busy performing career that has included performances on numerous Broadway shows and many television and radio commercials, as well as performances with a wide variety of artists, including Steve Smith, Gregg Bissonette, Carmine Appice, Zoro, Blues Saracino, Toy Caldwell, Barry Goudreau, Abe Laborial Jr. (Paul McCartney), Jamie Haddad, Giovani Hildalgo, Marcus Miller, Chuck Rainey, Sammy Davis, Jr., Liberace, Nell Carter, Bobby Vinton, Diane Carroll, and many other artists.
Today, he performs with Herb Reed and the Original Platters, the Drifters, the Coasters (as seen on the PBS Doo-Wop specials), and Tomo Fujita and Blue Funk. Vitti is the author of numerous bass instructional books and DVDs.
