I just ran across this FaceBook item featuring the Los Angeles Philharmonic. I am very biased, but I'd bet this is darn near the best orchestra anywhere. Intonation, articulation, ensemble beauty and precision are really extraordinary. Hope this link works. The bass trombone/tuba duo is fantastic. You did good, Norm Pearson.

Before Amy Jo got that job, she was principal in our IRIS Orchestra.
Her husband is also one of the horn players in the LAPO.

Kristi Crago (of Burning River Brass) moved up to Amy Jo's chair, when she left.

Thanks Joe. It's very interesting to learn about Amy Jo Rhine's connection to your Iris Orchestra. Amy Jo Rhine has an impeccable background.
