CURRENT MISSION

Encouraging ensemble music making

ABOUT ME

Professional classical musician. I conduct a regional community orchestra, do lots of freelance gigs, and teach piano, violin, viola, cello and bass in a private music academy. I also have a regular church gig as an organist.

PHILOSOPHY

And it harm none, do what you will.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I make space available for musicians visiting this area.

Summer 2012 I will host and direct the Fifth Season of the Summer Sight Reading Orchestra in Yorktown, Virginia, USA. This group will meet Sunday afternoons 3 to 5 PM from July 11 through August 15. This summer we will focus on music for string orchestra. No auditions, no music stands; bring your own!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on many couches and have had many guests use mine.
