As a kid, I visited many national parks with my family and admired the lucky people who lived and worked within them. Dvorak, Grieg, and a lot of the English composers do this for me. They help every instrument find its best voice. I seek such a voice in my own work, a tune in concert with their high craft. Sharing something personal, felt so deeply, with the audience.
Vast truths inhabit every great work-within, above, and between the notes.
When we make music, we make the truths of composers passionately audible for audiences. The extraordinary opportunity to spend my life adventuring through the orchestral repertoire. To view previous Player Portraits, view our Orchestra Roster and click on the desired Player's name.
