I hope you are all doing well. Thanks so much for checking in on my sight, I am so looking forward to sharing just a couple of amazing things happening this fall. I'm so grateful to all of you, and your interest in supporting the music, the arts, and our community. Finding ways to support each other, and stick together, and spread kindness, and love, is the way forward in my opinion, as it has always been, however we can always try harder, to be even better.
Love, Edwin

A VIRTUAL PRESENTATION OF MUSIC & NATURE
The Manzanita Music Collective was born from the desire to share live music with friends. Early in the summer, Concordia’s Artistic Director, Michelle Djokic invited the versatile violinist, Edwin Huizinga to become a “quararteam” with her and explore all the repertoire for violin and cello and then some! We invite you to watch and listen to the musical telling of these two musician’s navigating the difficulties of social distancing while safely bringing live music to small groups of friends on a tiny porch. Young filmmaker, Hamilton Hansen, collected footage of Michelle and Edwin’s efforts and created a documentary of sorts.
The performance features musical selections which include arrangements of three Preludes from Bach’s Well Tempered Klavier, movements from the notable duos for violin and cello by Ravel, Kodaly, and Hermann, and the entire Schulhoff Duo. You’ll be able to sit back and enjoy views of the nature that surround the musical duo from a beautiful California setting which was a continual source of their inspiration.

Thank you to all that came out to support us and the festival. Check out the slideshow below for some pictures.

Erin Carey and I have spent the last six months working on a project with Big Sur poet Casey Cushing and others called Poetry in Motion. We have had an incredible community providing us with small private opportunities to perform safely for our community. Stay tuned for more projects to come! |

My dear friend John Wineglass is writing a violin concerto that I will be premiering with the Monterey Symphony in 2022. It is a dream come true for me - to be able to work with John, and perform with a Symphony that I love!!!
