How it began
My stepfather gave harmony and solfège lessons to high school students preparing for the conservatory, including a percussionist, some singers and...a horn player. He played in a brass band and they still had one of those "things" lying around. After a year in the harmony orchestra I joined the North Holland accompaniment orchestra and the North Holland Youth Orchestra. Right away I played Brahms' Fourth and Mahler's Kindertotenlieder, wonderful!
At the Residentie Orkest since
