I’m thrilled to have been named Principal Pops Conductor of the Syracuse Symphony! I will get to do all kinds of programs: pops, regional, family, and some classical ones too! I have been a regular guest since 2002 and love working with them. My most memorable experience so far occurred traveling to a Holiday Pops in Rome, the worst travel day of my life but with a great ending! The most hilarious: “Ron do y0u have any pants?” I look forward to more great pants…I mean great experiences! With sadness though I’m having to bid farewell to the Metropolitain Classical Ballet after our performance in September. I will miss their brilliant artistry, but we will hopefully meet again to catch up!
