Education

Bachelor of Music, Cello Performance, Voice (minor) at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

Transferred from UFRGS, Brazil. Studies with Nathaniel Rosen, Marc Johnson (external)
Bachelor of Music, Composition, other at Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, UFRGS

Graduate Diploma, Cello at Longy School of Music
August 30, 1995 - April 15, 1997
Didn't graduate but had much Early styles instruction on Baroque Cello (Phoebe Carrai) and Singing (Laurie Monahan, and a later workshop with Cristi Catt). I was also greatly blessed by finally learning what George Seaman had to teach me on Modern Cello, but only after I'd left school. Unfortunately I couldn't thank him as I've learned of his passing just as I looked him up on Google.
