Performing

I play oboes, flutes, other woodwinds, piano, percussion — really, anything I can get my hands on. I have performed on oboe with Boulder Symphony, Arapahoe Philharmonic, Denver Rock Orchestra, and Flatirons Community Orchestra; on flutes, tin whistles, and vocals with an Irish band for twenty years; and on pretty much everything — including primal scream and bass recorder — with my fifteen-person chamber ensemble, Unfinished Orchestra.

I run Unfinished Orchestra, a chamber music group with a diverse instrumentation. We hold a couple of concerts a year, and play a mix of classical and pop music, and weird mashups of both. I arrange all the music to make it work, and try to give everyone a part that is fun to play and suits their strengths.
