Last week, I conducted William Walton’s Belshazzar’s Feast with the @bozemansymphony and Symphonic Choir. On the first half was Debussy’s Clair de Lune transcribed by Stokowski and Mahler’s Rückert Lieder, sung gloriously by @iamlesterlynch

This was a highlight for my career. I knew Belshazzar’s Feast was epic, but I didn’t know it was going to be like THAT! I’ve never felt so much energy on the podium as I did on Saturday night for the first performance. My deep gratitude goes out to every member of the Bozeman Symphonic Choir for spending months learning this extremely difficult work. It wouldn’t have been possible without @conor_whalenconductor and his leadership 🙏

I was also deeply moved by Lester’s artistry and care for Mahler. Every measure was inspiring.

The orchestra was a spectacular, versatile, and brought the 🔥 to all three works.

I’m truly grateful to serve this amazing community in Bozeman, MT.

I had a blast conducting three performances of Tchaikovsky’s Sleeping Beauty in a historic collaboration between @montanaballet and @bozemansymphony.

We removed two rows of seats to be able to expand the size of the orchestra and it was SO worth it!

It was great to welcome @nycballet principals @ilafreniere and @rtomash to Bozeman. Bravo to @montanaballet company dancers and cast! Melissa Bowman, your vision for MBC is inspiring and loved your artistry.

Last but not least , the wonderful musicians of the Bozeman Symphony and the many beautiful featured solos. Y’all were excellent and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to conduct this great piece!

I’m so excited to be making my debut with the @laphil at @hollywoodbowl in September. Dream come true!

It is so fun to witness a band’s first experience hearing their music with orchestra. It’s even more thrilling to hear an audience react to their favorite band’s music in the most epic way - with an orchestra. The crowd at @benaroyahall tonight was absolutely on fire for Head and the Heart AND the @seattlesymphony. It was so great to see these wonderful musicians again. It is always a delight to make music with all of you. @sso_players_organization

Thank you @andrewjoslynmusic for asking me to part of this project. Your orchestrations were brilliant, fun to conduct, and perfect for the group.

Thanks to the members of @theheadandtheheart for your music and wonderful spirit. I’ve been a fan of your music for over a decade, so this was extra special for me. I’ll always remember this concert!

Always a joy to see and conduct my wonderful friends and colleagues of the @oregonsymphony

Thanks to the audience for three concerts and showing the love!

A very successful and fulfilling Holiday Spectacular with @bozemansymphony . Meeting and working with @tenorterrence was an absolute treat and I can’t wait until we collaborate more in the future. @conor_whalenconductor had the Symphony Choir sounding fantastic.

These concerts are some my favorite to program and conduct. I love hosting from the stage, telling jokes and stories. In these concerts, I find the beauty in humanity through the lens of music making. We have more in common than what the internet leads us to believe. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! 🎄🎅🏾🍾

Now off to Portland to see myOregon fam! @oso_musicians
