About

I am a freelance performer of lutes and early guitars of various kinds. I specialize in music from Renaissance, Baroque, and Classical eras on historical instruments. I have performed with some of the most prestigious organizations and groups around, including LA Opera, Portland Baroque Orchestra, and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. Playing for large groups and music festivals is my bread and butter, but I very much enjoy playing solo and chamber music for small audiences in intimate places.

Music

Renaissance, Baroque, and Classical eras. Solo or small ensemble (viola da gamba, violin, recorder...). I also accompany voice often.
