I love to collaborate with as many musicians as possible. My latest collaborations are with:
Dr. Lucas Kaspar. He is an Instructor/Artist of Trombone at Arkansas State University. Together, we formed TromboKordion Duo in 2022. We regularly perform recitals together. During the summer of 2024, we performed a full recital at ATG in Kansas City. We also performed at the International Trombone Festival in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2023, ATG in Chicago, Illinois, in 2023. TromboKordion recently performed a recital at the Big 12 Trombone Conference on January 18th, 2025 at Texas Tech, in Lubbock, Texas. We also performed a Benefit Concerts at Dallas College and at the Kawai Piano Gallery in March 2025 for the Fainshtein Accordion Fund in memory of Gregory Fainshtein and Elijah Clements. We most recently performed in London, Ontario, Canada, at the the International Trombone Festival in July, 2025.
In January 2025 Cellist Joseph Kuipers, renowned for his creativity and versatility, and I joined together in a Duo and performed first time on the faculty recital on February 11, 2025 at Dallas College. I look forward to more collaborations with Joseph!
Martina Li is a great accordionist, and we performed together at the Kawai Piano Gallery in 2024.
Sergei and Maria Teleshev are known for their father and daughter accordion duo Two Accordions. It was so much fun to perform with them!
My most recent collaboration was at the International Trombone Festival, held in London, Ontario, Canada, July 16th-19th, 2025. Dr. Lucas Kaspar and I performed a full recital on the last day of the festival. For our final piece, we were joined by another trombonist, Lucas Borges. We performed Fiera de Mangaio. After the recital, the audience members expressed surprise and pleasure at how well the accordion and the trombone complement each other.
