Orchestra Project Weeks

A little off the beaten track, in June I ended up playing two consecutive weekends with two different nice symphony orchestras in Hanover.

First, I played concerts featuring Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition with Hanover’s renown JSO.

Then, a Sibelius piece and drums on Gershwin’s Rapsody in Blue with Hanover’s regional youth orchestra.

Check out the photograph below and make sure you get a chance to meet these nice orchestras for real – for instance the JSO at the Chopin Open Air in Hanover in August. read more
