The Four Seasons

I have performed the solo part to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons in many venues with many orchestras, including with The Wichita Symphony Orchestra and on Mountain Stage. My performance with the WSU Chamber Players has been used on multiple independent films, commercial advertisements, and a variety of uploaded videos. It appears on Wikipedia, and has been recognized there as a featured sound, acknowledging it as one of their finest sound files.
