Classical New Jersey wrote, "whether playing Bach or post-bop, D'Rivera's mastery of the instruments and their expressive capabilities is unquestionable". D'Rivera inherited his understanding of music from his father, Tito, a classical saxophonist and conductor. At the age of five, D'Rivera began being tutored in musical theory by his father. Within a year, he was playing well enough to be paid as a musician. By the age of seven, he became the youngest musician to endorse a musical instrument (Selmer saxophones). Three years later, he performed with the National Theater Orchestra of Havana. Although he initially played soprano saxophone, D'Rivera switched to the alto after teaching himself to play via the book, Jimmy Dorsey Saxophone Method: A School of Rhythmic Saxophone Playing. Strengthening his knowledge of music and playing techniques, D'Rivera began studying at the Havana Conservatory of Music in 1960. In 1965, D'Rivera became a featured soloist with the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra.

Para un viernes, donde el que mande sea la buena música, un buen trago, un sentir de tranquilidad, un estado casi hipnótico donde el mundo somos esta melodía y yo. Un paréntesis a esa cotidianidad que significa el día a día. Un basta a esas cosas mundanas y sumergirse en la naturalidad de lo bello. Un navegar con un solo rumbo,dado por cada nota de esa trompeta, saxo y piano, que nos habla al oído y nos arrulla con sus encantos, cada uno a su manera. Un respiro ante la mediocridad que significa lo obvio y simple. Me regocija saber que se puede crear cosas bellas. La magia de la amor.
