The Days Of New Music Festival - Chisinau

Pianist Erika Crino gave a stunning performance of my solo piano piece Two Dances in Vlachic Spirit. Her energetic and masterful interpretation truly brought the composition to life. The concert itself explored a dialogue between Moldovan and Canadian composers.

ICMC Seoul Impressions

Attending the ICMC in Seoul was an unforgettable experience. Over seven days, I immersed myself in concerts, presentations, installations, and endless opportunities to connect with fellow musicians. The scale of the event was truly impressive, with a remarkable number of attendees and works on display. The organization was flawless, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. A heartfelt thanks to ICMC for such a fantastic event!

I’m excited to announce a commission by Les Amis Concerts & Turning Point Ensemble. The piece is to be for a small chamber group and electronics, which will be premiered at Guarnerius Cultural Institution in Belgrade, Serbia on May 18, 2023. Turning Point Ensemble of Vancouver is scheduled to tour Croatia, Serbia, and Spain in May 2023. I am thrilled to be part of the tour and to meet musicians from Belgrade, Zagreb, and Vancouver.
