How I got started:
You could call me a "Music Addict" (everybody I know does... )
I've always loved to hear the strings--but, I never went to a school large enough to support an orchestra, so I picked up the trumpet instead. I still have it, it's in need of a little valve oil and polishing up. I haven't touched it much since I got the cello.

I picked up a copy of Ofra Harnoy's "Vivaldi Cello Concertos Vol.2" around November of 1991. I became hooked on playing the cello upon hearing the "Concerto in B-Minor (RV 424)". I began taking private lessons in March 1992. Along the way, I tracked down a copy of the Ricordi edition of Antonio Vivaldi's Concerto In Si Minore for myself. Not to mention nearly 4-dozen CD's featuring Ofra's beautiful performances:
