Singapore Symphony Orchestra

I don't know if that's true.

But this Singapore Symphony Orchestra's version of the William Tell Orchestra with the most... animated, enthusiastic conductor I've ever seen is just making me think so much about music and that it passed me by.

Music kind of passed me by, you know.

I couldn't figure out piano.

Right.

You know, honestly, Tom, uh, in August of 2022, I was in Singapore, guest concertmastering and considering a concertmaster job with the Singapore Symphony.

And I got a call from Kathleen Van Bergen, who is the CEO and president of Artists Naples, which is part of the home of the Naples Philharmonic, and she needed, last minute, a concertmaster for the coming season.

And as you know, I was serving as concertmaster of the Carmel Symphony and Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra at that time.
