Hedgehog Summer in a Nutshell!

Here’s a taste of Red Hedgehog Trio’s summer adventures.

Late summer greetings from your doting horn trio!

We wanted to share a quick update about what we’ve been up to this summer.

This June, we spent a wonderful two weeks in Saranac, NY, as guests of Hill and Hollow Music. We were fed, entertained, and housed like royalty; we got to hunker down and rehearse daily with a beautiful concert grand piano in a magical space with the perfect acoustic for our ensemble, and then perform there; we were taken on hikes and swims and provided firewood for a solstice fire in our very own fire pit.

As soloist, duo, and then full-on horn trio, we rehearsed and performed Bach’s First Partita in B-flat, Brahms’ Sonata for Piano and Violin in A Major, Op. 100, John Harbison’s Twilight Music, and our 10X10 set.

Call of the Wild – WCMS Faculty Recital

Call of the WildA fundamental element of my instrument is its deep connection to nature. Please join me and my wonderful colleagues on a musical exploration of the woods and streams of Europe from 1828 through the early 20th century. Repertoire includes: La Chasse de St. Hubert by Busser, Schubert’s Auf dem Strom, Im Tiefsten Walde by Schmid, and Brahms’ Trio for Horn, Violin, and Piano. Hope to see you there!

Announcing Call for Scores!

red hedgehog sept 17 flattenedI’m excited to announce the Red Hedgehog Trio‘s call for scores for miniature works for our ensemble (horn, violin, and piano): 2 minutes in length or under.

Composers, we’d love for you participate, and/or send along this call to friends, students, and colleagues who you think might be interested in composing for this (we think) very lovely instrumentation.

Here are all the details: Call For Scores

We look forward to hearing from you!

Hedgehogs, anyone?

Pretty appealing, right? I’m thrilled to tell you about my latest project in collaboration with my dear friends Marji and Dan – the Red Hedgehog Trio. We’ve been playing together for a while now, but this season we’re pursuing a bunch of initiatives including concerts, educational performances, new music, and more. Stay tuned for updates!
