Concerto/Aria Competition Winners Concert
May 6, 1997
Concerto in D (G. Tartini)
I. Allegro
II. Andante
III. Allegro grazioso
It was my honor to perform the Tartini Concerto in D with the WSU Symphony Orchestra as a winner of the WSU Concerto/Aria Competition. I was equally honored to have my good friend Raymond Linkous direct the concerto. Rehearsals for this performance did not go especially well, and I must admit, I was about as nervous as I can ever remember during this concert. I was very pleased with the outcome, however, and remember celebrating mightily at my favorite watering hole at the time, Tanner's Bar & Grill afterwards. Dr. Jay Decker, the director of the WSU Symphony was equally impressed...he couldn't stop congratulating me at the concert and at the reception at his home afterwards.
