A protege of the late Sir Georg Solti, she has been a concerto soloist with major orchestras and music festivals and has given numerous premieres of works created for her. She has adjudicated national and international competitions, and she enjoys private teaching, performance coaching and giving masterclasses. In 1998 she founded the award-winning nonprofit Listen For Life, which supports musicians in service of others worldwide. She has created new music festivals on four continents and hosted television programs about cross-cultural music on national networks of many countries. With all that, her favorite musical activity remains being a collaborative artist, performing with vocal and instrumental soloists of all genres and cultures. She is thrilled to perform again with Flicka, a dear friend.
Last year she moved with her husband, Andy Anderson, to Minneapolis, and she is extremely grateful for the warm community of musicians, music listeners and friends that they have already encountered here in their new “forever” home.
