Music

I primarily play classical music, ranging from the Baroque period to contemporary works. I love playing Bach's solo violin works, as well as the beautifully written pieces by Romantic and Impressionist-era composers such as Debussy, Wieniawski, Franck, and Saint-Saëns. I enjoy playing a concert with a theme, interweaving stories about each piece to enhance the audience's experience and help them understand and appreciate the music more.
