Raising a website.

Giving birth to a website is easy. Raising and nurturing it is a little more complicated. In these opening few days, you may find some errors as I create and delete pages, add and subtract links, and basically obsess over this site like a mother with her first-born. But rather than stay away until the dust has settled and the smoke subsided, I invite you to join the fun! As I figure out what and what not to include on pages such as my audio page, you will find recordings popping up and down like a mole in an arcade machine.

As of now (6:30pm EDT on Friday 3/25), there are seven audio recordings up: Brahms Sonata No. 2, because this is the first piece Nana and I put together; Bach G minor Fuga, as an example of solo violin playing; Schubert Rondo Brilliant, because I'M PLAYING A STRAD; Lasser Berceuse Fantasque as an example of contemporary music (though far from avant-garde); Dutilleux Ainsi la nuit, a contemporary string quartet that IS avant-garde; Haydn Quartet Op. 20 No. 5 because this is possibly my single favorite quartet recording of myself; and Piston Piano Trio, a 20th century trio that I challenge you to find anywhere else (it's not on YouTube or Amazon, I'm pretty sure.)

Hopefully this will whet your appetite. Next opportunity to hear me live is in two weeks! (See concerts for details.)
