When I was at GA, I remember him as this goofy little guy with big glasses. Then I heard him solo. One of the more amazing players I have had the opportunity to hear. Good for him!
Sweet. What'd you think of the piece? We premiered it with Hammy last month, and I got to play the solo part before he showed up. Pretty good stuff, imho.
He is S.Adam Frey, World-Renowned Euphonium Soloist.
ReplyDeleteThat's what his business card says.
That's another reason I run from him when I see him.

ReplyDeleteMO - I watched him cancel his entire young life to practice that thing. In a way, I feel like he earned that business card.
ReplyDeleteCH - He is still short and in shape, smaller glasses, less goofy, and an amazing player. It was really cool to see him.
CS - I liked the piece itself, but I did not care for it as a concerto. Just my take.
