""I didn't know that I would have this kind of life when I graduated from conservatory. You take auditions and don't know where you are going to land.""
""Going from gig to gig is nothing new for DeMartino, who is the principal clarinetist for Oregon Ballet Theatre and Portland Opera Orchestra.""
Oregon musicians, including Louis DeMartino, Nelly Kovalev, and Lisa Stoneham, perform with the Hawai'i Symphony Orchestra. DeMartino, the principal clarinetist, balances multiple roles in Oregon and travels frequently for performances. The orchestra's recent concert featured Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream, enhanced by actors and minimal props. DeMartino's journey includes prestigious education and various orchestral commitments, illustrating the diverse opportunities for musicians in different locations.
