My projects as a viola player and chamber musician. From classical music focusing on chamber music, to engaging in contemporary and electronic music, and improvisation.

New project for live electronic music, by composer Phuc Nguyen and me, playing amplified viola. After performing our Inevitable improvisation at the Natural History Museum, and at the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastrich, we performed at Vrijofth Theater a piece for solo amplified viola composed by Phuc Nguyen, "Seven". We are currently preparing for an album recording in Stavanger, Norway that will be released at the end of this year.

InevitableScape

Founded in 2024 at Conservatorium Maastricht, we began our musical journey under the guidance of renowned teacher Kyoko Yonemoto. The group is formed by violinists Sara Manaresi and Uxue Medrano, cellist Fermín García and me on the viola. Combining their passion for classical music and diverse backgrounds, we aim to bring fresh interpretations to the string quartet repertoire and are currently working on by Haydn and Mendelssohn.

Peiskos String Quartet

string duo viola and cello

String duo formed by Maja Apel, cello and me on the viola. Our ensemble is based in Stavanger, Norway, and among our repertoire you will find a variety of genres and composers. We have made our own arrangements for cello and viola of Bach Inventions, originally for piano, and Sibelius Duo in C major originally for violin and viola, and music from the movie My neighbour Totoro. We also perform Beethovens only piece originally for viola and cello called, Duet mit zwei obligaten Augengläser.

For the past couple of years we have been performing around Stavanger in concerts, conferences, weddings and other private events.
