Biography

Orchestral Repertoire
It is impossible to enumerate, or even to recollect all the orchestral works performed
publicly since 1999 when I began working professionally. Including repeat performances
of standard masterworks, the number of concerts and works I have been privileged to
play live is now in the thousands. This work deeply informs who I am as a performer,
teacher, and musician, but is often undocumented in audio/video form due to collective
bargaining agreements between the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) and the
various orchestras.
