David Alogna and Nan Avant at the recording session.. and the ” red” Strad violin!!

I am completely ecstatic  to share with you my newest orchestral work, Nani (Beautiful)  Lahaina~Rhapsody for Violin and Orchestra on the album, Symphonic Stradivarius, (yes, the Strad. violin) with 11 composers from around the globe. We recorded this new album in London with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Miran Vaupotić with renowned violinist David Alogna from Italy performing on a 17th century “red” Stradivarius violin. The experience was extraordinary,  breathtaking and I am so grateful to have had this amazing experience.  Read about the recording session from June 6, 2024 in London Here
