My mission is to present
the emotion, poetry & heart of the violin alone.

‘Live in Outer Sunset’ is my live 2024 recording of a monster program featuring solo sonatas from Prokofiev, Bartók, Ysaÿe, and Bacevicz. It’s available for USD26 in mp3 or ogg format (you get both if you want). Click here to purchase.

‘Eschaton’ is my first professional solo violin album featuring J.S. Bach and Bartók. It’s available for USD26 in mp3 or ogg format (you get both if you want). Click here to purchase.

My debut self-titled album is out of print. It featured solo violin works of Fritz Kreisler, and Eugène Ysaÿe. If you really want it, the mp3s could be made available. USD25. Just email me at ‘me’ at this web domain for easy ordering details.

As well, I used some interesting Unix tools to put this fifty-one minute mix together under my other alias, Yards of Lung. This album is a first for me and is titled ‘sox ready.’ It can be downloaded/streamed, gratis, here.

About the instrument

I play on the Jan B. Špidlen Op. 77 violin, an important modern instrument inspired by the ‘Plowden’ 1735 Guarneri, del Gesù, and a 1773 (ex Campoli, Grumiaux) Giovanni Battista Guadagnini inspired fiddle made in 2024 by Robert J. Wood.

Along with my fiddles, are my silver-mounted bow by David Samuels, which was made the exact same year as my Bohemian fiddle (2011), and silver-mounted bow by Morgan Andersen, made in 2023.
