In 2004 the Bethlehem Moravian Trombone choir turned 250, he was the Guest Conductor and even did a special arraignment of his Moravian Chorale Cycle. He lent me his Conn 62H to use during the Festival, since he had seen the Holton I was using had seen better days and had no F valve. The Conn had one of those fake bullet hole stickers on the bell, shows what a fun guy he is, on top of the playing ability. For Tuba inspiration, The short list is Chuck Dallenbach, Warren Deck, Gene Pokony Carol Jantsch, and Arnold Jacobs.

Along with pianist Joanna Sobkowska, he will be performing works by Bellini, de Frumerie, Wagner, Arban, and Bernstein.
