His genre-bending programs have grown out of an “enthusiasm for musical evolution that is as contagious as his love for the classics” (Seattle Times)\, and he has collaborated with artists including Yo-Yo Ma\, Edgar Meyer\, DJ Spooky\, Tony-winner/MacArthur Genius Bill T. Jones\, Grammy Award-winning East African vocalist Somi\, and Tony Award-nominated actor Anna Deavere Smith.
