Upcoming Gigs: November 8 - Korngold Concerto with the Erie Philharmonic in Pennsylvania, November 11 - Brahms Concerto with the Royal Philharmonic in London, November 14-16 - residency at Morehead State University in Kentucky Mailbox Mayhem: Bill (a different Bill) writes: "Being a longtime metal fan with only the very most glancing and superficial knowledge of classical, (own 1000+ CDs, maybe a dozen of which are classical) Stringendo has opened my eyes into a whole new realm. It has lead me to a curiosity and love for classical that Yngwie Malmsteen could not inspire, and I am a pretty big fan of his. Yesterday, I stumbled into "Instrument off the Devil", and bought it immediately. Thanks to these recordings, I have my first clues as to what classical I actually do like. Thank you for the first steps into broadening my musical horizons." A conversation with Grammy-nominated classical engineer Bill Maylone. Bill talks about working as an engineer at some of Chicago's top rock radio stations, which types of microphones he uses, Bill's Classical Recommendations: Bruckner - Symphony No. 4 Susato - The Battle Pavane Bach - The Italian Concerto Beethoven - Egmont Overture Mendelssohn - String Quartet Op. 44 No. 1 (especially the 4th movement) Saint-Saens - Carnival of the Animals Frank Bridge - Cello Sonata Stravinsky - The Firebird Copland - Appalachian Spring George Walker - Lyric for Strings total playing time: 19:33 SUBSCRIBE TO THIS PODCAST ON I-TUNES!

I am hoping to see you in another performance soon!” Philip Pan, concertmaster of the Jacksonville Symphony in Florida, talks about discovering rock music, learning how to play electric violin, and composing a speed metal-inspired piece for solo violin.
