About Me
Based in the NJ/NYC Metropolitan Area, Noah is in demand as a violist. Some recent engagements include his debut performance of Telemann's Viola Concerto, a collaboration with the Attacca String Quartet, recording on the latest album from NJ band Echo Road, and serving as principal viola of the underStaffed Chamber Orchestra, NYC Orchestra Project, Pierre Monteux School Orchestra, and the Montclair State University Orchestra.
I love exploring different musical genres, and pushing the limits of what I can do with my instrument. Recently, I've been experimenting with amplified viola, singing while playing, improvisation, and various instrumental combos. I'm comfortable playing pretty much any kind of music in any kind of setting, and what I don't know, I'm happy to learn. Feel free to get in touch if you want to play with me!
Outside of my musical life, I enjoy public speaking, hiking, and playing the tuba. I like to think that being a well rounded person makes me a better musician, and I love learning more about the world and people around me.
