As a multitalented conductor, pianist, singer, and producer, which one most resonates with you and why?
Indeed, I love these roles, as they activate different avenues for creativity. Most of all, I appreciate conducting for its ability to generate visceral connections with a community of musicians. We are breathing together, feeling together, finding resolution together. I can shape the sum of many parts and help us communicate with audiences.
You were able to collaborate and perform with many accomplished artists, such as Chance the Rapper and Grammy Award-winning artist Lisa Fischer; what would be the ultimate collaboration for you personally and for Uniting Voices Chicago?
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to work with so many accomplished musicians and creators over the years. I love connecting with innovative people and ensuring the resonance of artistic practices in the 21st century into the multiverse. I am always open to new projects and collaborations!
