He has appeared as soloist with many top orchestras throughout North America and in Europe, among them the Baltimore Symphony, San Diego Symphony, Houston Symphony, Indianapolis Symphony, George Enescu Philharmonic in Romania and Orquestra Filarmónica de Bogotá in Colombia.

He has performed recitals at American and European venues such as Carnegie Hall and the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, and his recordings include a disc of Carl Nielsen’s complete works for piano and violin with Danish violinist Hasse Borup, released in 2020 by Naxos. An advocate of new music, he will premiere Ketil Hvoslef’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in the 2022-23 season.
