Romeo and Juliet

I will once again be sitting in with the Michigan Opera Theatre Orchestra this month, as they collaberate with the American Ballet Theater in a production of Prokofiev’s ballet Romeo and Juliet.

It’s always a pleasure to perform at the Detroit Opera House, and this is some breathtakingly beautiful music.
