Rossini, Hillsong, Disney and A-ha with some of my favorite people. Thank you Tavernier, for an unforgettable evening! 🎻🎻🎻🎻✨🙏🔥

La Serva Padrona was written by Giovanni Pergolesi in 1733, when he was only 23 years old. I’ve had the pleasure of playing this light and fun baroque opera twice; last month as concertmaster, with Mostly Baroque ensemble, using baroque bows 🎻 🩷 at Arsht Center. Soprano Tsai and baritone Johan Hartman brought brought their spectacular voices and charm to each of their roles, for a truly unique, wonderful concert!

As part of the same baroque series, virtuosic piccolo trumpet solos in Bach’s iconic Brandenburg Concertos were played by . Harpsichord by Gene Greco, under the direction of David Hartman. Bravi, tutti! 🎶🎺🎻🎹

So Friday I played an event where I heard Ron MaGill may be a guest, and I thought this was very cool, since I’ve been a fan of his work for a long time! As I was walking to my car afterwards, none other than the man himself came up to me and said that he and his wife really appreciated the music - especially the violin solo I played in the beginning. 🤯 I couldn’t believe they noticed and certainly didn’t expect that he would make an effort to approach me!! 🥹 I wish I had included his beautiful wife Rita in the photo, but it took a moment for me to get over the fact that I was actually speaking with him, or to even suggest a photo! Such genuine and kind people, and a true Miami treasure! 🦅🦅🦍🦁🎉🦜🌴🎻🎶
