I started to study music when I was 5 years old. First I was playing piano. Later, at the age of 9, I started to play clarinet. I was in love with it from the very first note I produced on it.
Many good moments passed since then. I was playing many different kind music: classical, contemporary, jazz, klezmer, arabic, gipsy jazz, eastern-european folk, reggae, etc. with many good musicians. Was touring in Europe, and did recording with several bands. A few to mention: The Groove of the Nile (HdKdW, Berlin); Acoustic Rendez-vous (gipsy-jazz; performances with Bawo and Lulo Reinhardt); Los Amigos (Latvia, many top 1 hits, gold, platinum).
Now I am living in New York and at the moment am finishing working on my Master's in Music Performance.
