Dr. Mark Elliot Bergman directing the Sheridan College Symphony Orchestra
As an ensemble director, I lead the Augsburg Symphony Orchestra and work with other ensembles throughout the region as a gust artist . Working with these wonderful musicians is a privilege! Below are videos of my work with the Augsburg Symphony Orchestra and the Sheridan College Symphony Orchestra, which I founded in 2014 and directed until 2024.

On rare occasions, I work with my ensembles as a soloist and a conductor! In the Spring of 2021, we needed to reduce the size of our ensembles to 20 or fewer due to safety concerns related to the pandemic. Unable to present the regularly scheduled Beethoven piano concerto, we switched gears and played the Vanhal Concerto for Double Bass!Â
