This is the third year that I’ve been lucky enough to be working at the National Youth Orchestra of Canada. This year we are gathering in the lovely UWO Campus. I’m playing a Haydn Trio with Steve Sitarski and David Hetherington tomorrow night, and some Shostakovich with Mark Skazinetsky. Especially exciting is a mass performance of Coming Together we have planned for July 13th. I’ve never performed it with such a big group – should be pretty fantastic!
