Hello friends!

I wanted to let you know about a current fundraising campaign we are running with Rossini Club to fund the remaining costs of my album, which will feature Del Sol Quartet, clarinetist Nicholas Davies, and a vocal quartet organized by soprano Rose Hegele. The album includes my Clarinet Quintet "Oh World, Goodnight" and String Quartet No. 4 "Kaddish", both of which intimately connect to the Yiddish world. Please click on the linktree in bio for more info and to see the perks for donating (from receiving the final album to getting a private concert!).

I am so incredibly proud and excited for this year’s A Besere Velt concert. This year, we are collaborating with The Golden Thread Ensemble, an International collective of klezmer, musicians and concert artist! On May 10, we will all gather at the Somerville Armory at 2 PM and sing rare historical Yiddish songs calling for social change, demanding equality and dignity for all people. Come join us for a celebratory afternoon… it’s also a wonderful thing you can do with your mother on Mother’s Day!

A phenomenally momentous evening: BEETHOVEN 9 WITH MY STUDENTS!!!! What pure joy we all shared! 🥹 Thank you MTA!!!!
