Instrumentalist
I enjoy playing music in a wide variety of styles. Double Bass is my main instrument, but I also play the electric bass, cello, American Bass Viol (i.e. "church bass"), and viola da gamba. In addition to my work as the Assistant Principal Double Bassist of the Billings Symphony Orchestra, I frequently collaborate with colleagues in various genres.
