A list of upcoming performances and events for the bassoonophile

As principal bassoonist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and a member of the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, I take part in myriad performances throughout the year at Symphony Hall and Jordan Hall in Boston and at Tanglewood in the Berkshires. Lovers of classical music in general should be sure to visit the BSO website for a complete listing of performances by these great ensembles as well as to purchase tickets. The following list includes just a fraction of the performances by the BSO and BSCP and is intended to highlight the performances I already have my eyes on as they contain extensive or iconic bassoon solos and passagework.
