Concerto highlights include appearances with internationally acclaimed orchestras such as the Utah Symphony Orchestra, the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra, the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, Space Coast Symphony Orchestra, the Russian National Orchestra, and Philharmonie der Nationen.
