2014 was full of music with over 50 concerts throughout the United States and in Russia. I gave World Premiere performances of compositions by Thomas L. Read, Schott Scharff, Ricardo Odriozola and Martin Schreiner; introduced new works to Russia by Ken Ueno, Francine Trester and Keigo Fujii. Made new friends via collaborations with the Rimsky-Korsakov String Quartet and the Mu Phi Epsilon Tri-annual convention, reunited with musical friends for concerts with Schola Cantorum of Boston, mezzo-soprano Betany Coffland and cellist Rafael Popper-Keizer.
Below are some pictures and videos from the year!
